Purpose: To improve clinical outcome of gastric cancer patients, most emphasis is on improving therapeutic regimens, including more extensive surgery as well as (neo)adjuvant chemotherapy. The present study set out to identify, based on DNA copy number profiling, subgroups of patients with different...

Gastric cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death worldwide, but incidence and mortality rates show large variations across different countries. Variation in risk factors between different populations, including environmental and host factors influencing gastric cancer risk, have been r...

Background: Around 30% of all stage II colon cancer patients will relapse and die of their disease. At present no objective parameters for identification of high-risk stage II colon cancer patients, who will benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy, are established. With traditional histopathological feat...

Chromosomal instable colorectal cancer is marked by specific large chromosomal copy number aberrations. Recently, focal aberrations of 3Mb or smaller have been identified as a common phenomenon in cancer. Inherent to their limited size, these aberrations harbour one or few genes. The aim of this stu...

Chromosomal instability (CIN) is the hallmark of colorectal adenoma to carcinoma progression in 85% of cases, with 20q gain as the most prominent aberration. Yet, the oncogenes at this chromosomal gain are still largely unknown. Here, we aimed to identify oncogenes at 20q involved in colorectal aden...

Purpose: Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare cancer and consequently the number of clinical trials has been very limited due to the small numbers of patients. Chemotherapy regimens are currently rather arbitrarily chosen between either a colorectal (CRC) or a gastric cancer (GC) regimen. Chr...

Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) archival tissue is an important source of DNA material. The most commonly used technique to identify copy number aberrations from chromosomal DNA in tumorigenesis is array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH). Although copy number analysis using DNA from ...

Array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH) is a widely used technique to assess chromosomal copy number alterations. Chromosomal content, however, is often not uniform throughout cell populations. The aim of our present study is to evaluate to what extent aCGH can detect DNA copy number alterat...
