The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) revealed that the FOXM1 transcriptional pathway was eccentrically activated in over 85% of high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) cases (Pratheeshkumar et al., 2018) and that high FOXM1 expression was associated with the stage and prognosis of ovarian cancer (Gentles et al., 2015). The gene discussed is FOXM1; the disease is ovarian cancer.
