Moreover, genomic alterations of FA pathway members are prevalent in prostate adenocarcinoma patients; mutation and copy number information for the FA pathway genes in seven patient cohorts (N = 1,732 total tumor samples) reveals that 1,025 (59.2%) tumor samples have an alteration in at least one of the FA pathway genes, suggesting that genomic alteration of the pathway is a prominent feature in patients with the disease. This evidence concerns the gene FANCA and neoplasm.
