Significance

Systematic genomic sequencing of prostate cancer in African-American men revealed new insights into prostate cancer, including the identification of ERF as a prostate cancer gene; somatic copy-number alteration differences; and uncommon PIK3CA and PTEN alterations. This study highlights the importance of inclusion of underrepresented minorities in cancer sequencing studies.
