Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recent technical advancement of genetic analyses has enabled us to discover many cancer-related mutations in various cancers. We then have to clarify the clinical significance of these gene mutations. In this study, we conducted cancer-related gene analysis in cases with hepatocellular carcinoma, early esophageal carcinoma, early gastric carcinoma and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms that are known as precursor lesions of pancreatic cancer. We have found the relation between tumor mutations and several clinical characteristics.
