Abstract
Colitis-associated cancers (CACs) develop in patients with inflammatory bowel disease and have distinct genomic features compared to sporadic colorectal cancers. Here, the authors characterize the genomic alterations of CAC tumors and dysplasia, finding decreased Wnt signaling and a lack of shared early genetic steps.
