Abstract
Diffuse Gastric Cancer (DGC) is increasingly being considered separate to intestinal type gastric cancer; several fusions events have been reported as drivers of the disease but few of those have been subsequently validated. Here the authors perform RNA-seq on early-onset DGC patients who had not been treated with chemotherapy or radiation and identify a previously unknown fusion.
