Multi-omics profiling of primary small cell carcinoma of the esophagus reveals RB1 disruption and additional molecular subtypes

Primary small cell carcinoma of the oesophagus has a poor prognosis, and has not been fully characterised molecularly. Here, the authors study the disease using multi-omics technology and find frequent RB1 disruptions and similarities to small cell lung cancer, opening potential therapeutic avenues.
