Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common human sarcoma. Most of the data available on GISTs derive from retrospective studies of patients referred to oncology centers. The MolecGIST study sought to determine and correlate clinicopathological and molecular characteristics of GISTs. Tumor samples and clinical records were prospectively obtained and reviewed for patients diagnosed in France during a 24-month period. Five hundred and ninety-six patients were included, of whom 10% had synchronous metastases. GISTs originated from the stomach, small bowel or other site in 56.4, 30.2 and 13.4% of cases, respectively. The main prognostic markers, tumor localization, size and mitotic index were not independent variables (P
