Genomic and molecular analyses identify molecular subtypes of pancreatic cancer recurrence
Pancreatic cancer (PC) remains a highly lethal malignancy, and most patients with localized disease that undergo surgical resection still succumb to recurrent disease. Pattern of recurrence after pancreatectomy is heterogenous, with some studies illustrating that site of recurrence can be associated with prognosis.1 Another study suggested that tumors that develop local and distant recurrence can be regarded as a homogenous disease with similar outcomes.2 Here we investigate novel molecular determinants of recurrence pattern after pancreatectomy for PC
