Decoding evolutionary trajectories of ovarian cancer metastasis

Aasa Shimizu & Ernst Lengyel

The genetic changes during high-grade serous ovarian cancer metastasis have largely remained a mystery. Lahtinen et al. show that ovarian cancer metastasizes along three different evolutionary states that have distinct mutations and signaling pathways, potentially allowing the identification of targeted treatments.
