A deep learning system accurately classifies primary and metastatic cancers using passenger mutation patterns by Jiao, W, Atwal, G, Polak, P, Karlic, R, Cuppen, E, PCAWG Tumor Subtypes and Clinical Translation Working Group, Danyi, A, de Ridder, J, van Herpen, C, Lolkema, MP, Steeghs, N, Getz, G, Morris, QD, Stein, LD, PCAWG Consortium

“…In cancer, the primary tumour's organ of origin and histopathology are the strongest determinants of its clinical behaviour, but in 3% of cases a patient presents with a metastatic tumour and no obvious primary. Here, as part of the ICGC/TCGA Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) Consortium, we train a deep learning classifier to predict cancer type based on patterns of somatic passenger mutations detected in whole genome sequencing (WGS) of 2606 tumours representing 24 common cancer types produced by the PCAWG Consortium. …”
