Identification of the four molecular subtypes provides a roadmap for patient stratification and trials of targeted therapies.
The study proposes a molecular classification of gastric cancer into four subtypes: Epstein-Barr virus-positive, microsatellite unstable, genomically stable, and chromosomal instability.
Microsatellite unstable gastric tumours show elevated mutation rates, including mutations of genes encoding targetable oncogenic signalling proteins.
