Abstract
Barrett’s esophagus is a pre-malignant condition that can progress to esophageal cancer. Here, the authors carry out whole genome sequencing of samples from patients who did or did not progress to cancer and find that mutations in many genes occur regardless of progression status, but also find features associated with progressive disease.
