Abstract

See full text

Novel biomarkers and targets associated with ovarian cancer, particularly clear-cell carcinoma, endometrioid carcinoma, and uterine carcinoma, are disclosed. Mutations in genes encoding proteins that form part of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling protein complex, including ARID1A, or loss of expression of such proteins, including BAF250a, can be used to evaluate the likelihood endometriosis will progress or transform to cancer, to provide a prognosis for a patient with cancer, to assess whether conventional treatment is likely to be effective against a cancer, and/or in a synthetic lethal screen to identify novel targets and therapeutics for the treatment of cancer.
