Hereditary Colorectal Cancer Syndrome Caused by Recessive Mutations in Mismatch Repair Gene
Researchers identified two cases with biallelic mutations in MSH3 in exome sequences from more than 100 patients with unexplained colorectal adenomatous polyposis.
Colorectal Adenoma Exomes Reveal Precancerous Somatic Mutation
In individuals at risk of colorectal cancer, pre-cancerous adenomas contain somatic mutations affecting known cancer genes and pathways.
Restarting the trial will require the company to raise additional funds before its money runs out this summer.
