Study Description

Carcinosarcomas of the female genital tract, or GCS, are uncommon but clinically highly aggressive neoplasms with biphasic histology of carcinomatous (C) and sarcomatous (S) elements. These tumors represent a unique model to study the genetic and phenotypic diversity of cancer cells and the link between cellular plasticity and resistance to therapy. The aim of ICGC GCS program is to genomically characterize C and S components of 20 tumors, from endometrium or ovary, through an integrative analysis of whole genome sequencing, RNA sequencing and methylome array.

Dataset ID Description Technology Samples
EGAD00001003163
Whole genome sequencing data of 20 carcinosarcomas.
Illumina HiSeq 2000 23
EGAD00001003755
This dataset provides whole genome sequencing data of normal/tumors pairs from 9 patients with uterine or ovarian carcinosarcoma using the HiSeq 2000 sequencing system. It includes 27 samples (9 normals, 16 uterine tumors and 2 ovarian tumors). Through separate whole genome sequencing of carcinomatous and sarcomatoid components, we analyse and compare the genomic alterations of these components.
Illumina HiSeq 2000 27
EGAD00001003898
This dataset provides whole genome sequencing data of normal/tumors pairs from 4 patients with uterine or ovarian carcinosarcoma using the HiSeq 2000 sequencing system. It includes 10 samples (4 normals, 4 uterine tumors and 2 ovarian tumors). Through separate whole genome sequencing of carcinomatous and sarcomatoid components, we analyse and compare the genomic alterations of these components.
Illumina HiSeq 2000 10
EGAD00001009099
Gynecologic carcinosarcomas (CS), including more generally uterine (endometrial) and less frequently ovarian localization, are histologically defined as biphasic neoplasms composed of carcinomatous (C) epithelial and sarcomatous (S) malignant components. We report a comprehensive analysis of 20 patients of macro-dissected samples of C and S components through RNA sequencing.
