EPAS1 and neoplasm: Methods: Publicly available next-generation sequencing (NGS) data from muscle-invasive UC cell lines and patient tumor samples from the MSK/TCGA 2020 cohort (n = 476) were interrogated for the level of expression (mRNA, protein) and presence of mutations, copy number variations, structural variants in the EPAS1 gene encoding HIF-2, and findings among various clinical (stage, grade, progression-free and overall survival) and molecular (tumor mutational burden, enriched gene expression) parameters were compared between altered and unaltered tumors.
