Next Generation Sequencing of Childhood Soft Tissue Sarcomas to Identify Drivers of Primary and Metastatic Disease


OBJECTIVES:

- To identify the key components of driver pathways of primary and secondary soft tissue
sarcomas.

- To perform the next-generation sequencing on primary versus normal on undifferentiated
sarcomas.

OUTLINE: Genomic DNA and RNA samples from undifferentiated sarcoma tumors are analyzed by
next-generation sequencing for somatic mutations. Normal matched lymphocytes and tissue are
also analyzed.
