Characterization of Nigerian breast cancer reveals prevalent homologous recombination deficiency and aggressive molecular features

Characterization of Nigerian breast cancer reveals prevalent homologous recombination deficiency and aggressive molecular features

Research on racial and ethnic influence on breast cancer mortality is stymied by a lack of genomic studies in diverse populations. Here, the authors genomically interrogate 194 Nigerian breast cancers, unveiling molecular features that could explain the high mortality rate from breast cancer in an i...
