Recurrent mutation of IGF signalling genes and distinct patterns of genomic rearrangement in osteosarcoma

Osteosarcoma is a primary malignancy of bone that affects children and adults. Here, the authors sequence childhood and adult osteosarcomas, identifying mutations in insulin-like growth factor signalling genes and distinct genomic rearrangement profiles characterized by chromothripsis-amplification.
