Abstract

Aim. Colon cancer, one of the most common type of cancer in developed countries, was analyzed to identify clinically relevant gene variants in the samples from Ukrainian patients. Conclusions. The data demonstrate the high level identification of the clinical significant gene variants in the colon cancer samples by the CHP. Further confirmation on a larger number of samples and deeper analysis of clinical significant gene variants as potential clinical relevant mutations by other approaches would be beneficial.
