Bowel cancer is the second most common cancer affecting Australians today, and half of all patients will not survive their disease. Bowel cancer grows from small growths called polyps. In this project, we aim to investigate changes in genes found in a particularly aggressive type of bowel polyp called a tubulovillous adenoma. A better understanding of these gene changes will aid the future development of molecular tests for early detection and therapeutic options for the treatment of cancer.

肠癌是当今影响澳大利亚人的第二种最常见的癌症，所有患者中有一半无法存活。肠癌是由称为息肉的小肿瘤发展而来的。在这个项目中，我们的目标是研究在一种特别侵袭性的称为管状绒毛状腺瘤的肠息肉中发现的基因变化。更好地了解这些基因变化将有助于未来分子检测的发展，以早期发现和治疗癌症的选择。
