Mark Rubin, Francesca Demichelis and colleagues study the evolution of urothelial carcinomas by performing whole-exome sequencing of tumors collected from patients before and after chemotherapy. They find marked within-patient tumor heterogeneity and increased mutations involved in integrin signaling pathways and APOBEC-induced mutation signatures after treatment.
