The study proposes a molecular classification of gastric cancer into four subtypes: Epstein-Barr virus-positive, microsatellite unstable, genomically stable, and chromosomal instability.

Claim 3subtype associationsupports2014Source 1DOIPubMed

Epstein-Barr virus-positive gastric tumours display recurrent PIK3CA mutations, extreme DNA hypermethylation, and amplification of JAK2, CD274 (PD-L1), and PDCD1LG2 (PD-L2).
