Oct. 6 (UPI) -- A recent study by the Duke Cancer Institute helps identify genetic drivers for the most common form of lymphoma, the most common blood cancer.
Researchers analyzed tumor samples from 1,001 patients who had been diagnosed with diffuse large B cell lymphoma, the most common form of lymphoma, over the past 10 years. The team used whole exome sequencing to pinpoint 150 genetic drivers of diffuse large B cell lymphoma, many of which were newly identified.
