Integrative genomic profiling of large-cell neuroendocrine carcinomas reveals distinct subtypes of high-grade neuroendocrine lung tumors

The molecular nature of large-cell neuroendocrine lung carcinomas (LCNEC) has remained unclear. Here, the authors show LCNECs represent a distinct transcriptional subgroup among lung cancers and comprise two molecular subgroups, type I (TP53 and STK11/KEAP1 alterations) and type II (TP53 and RB1 ina...
