Gene expression profiling can identify biologically distinct subgroups within soft tissue sarcoma histological subtypes, potentially revealing novel therapeutic targets and aiding in sub-classification.
Skubitz et al. (2008) conducted an observational in Soft tissue sarcomas and aggressive fibromatosis (n=53). Gene expression profiling was evaluated on Identification of subgroups within soft tissue sarcomas based on gene expression patterns. Hierarchical clustering of gene expression profiles from 53 soft tissue sarcoma and aggressive fibromatosis samples identified distinct subgroups within histological subtypes.
