Rare cancers often share a broken cellular machine even when they arise in different organs. Grouping patients by that shared fault makes trials possible.
Tumour-agnostic approvals so far follow single alterations such as NTRK fusions or mismatch repair deficiency. Many rare cancers instead share mechanism classes (SWI/SNF complex loss including SMARCB1 and SMARCA4, chromatin regulator loss, fusion-driven transcription factor addiction, metabolic enzyme mutations) that could define baskets with dozens of contributing diagnoses and a common therapeutic hypothesis such as EZH2 or PRMT5 dependence.
One of the most cited reviews Europe PMC returns for EZH2 in Sarcomas, so it is a natural first reading for anyone weighing the idea it is linked from. The record was linked automatically by title and abstract; read the abstract above and the paper itself before relying on any figure.
One of the most cited reviews Europe PMC returns for EZH2 in Ovarian cancer, so it is a natural first reading for anyone weighing the idea it is linked from. The record was linked automatically by title and abstract; read the abstract above and the paper itself before relying on any figure.
One bottleneck page and twelve idea pages on OnCo cite this paper by its DOI; this record gives the citation a page of its own so a reader can follow it without leaving OnCo. Read the abstract above alongside the citing pages listed under Related; the record was created automatically from the Europe PMC entry and its figures have not been checked by hand.
