Abstract mTORC1 inhibitors were first approved for the use in metastatic kidney cancer.
However, observed treatment benefit was highly heterogeneous among patients. Through
case-based cancer genomic sequencing of therapeutic outliers, we can begin to appreciate
the convergent evolution of given cancer pathways/phenotypes beyond genes in kidney
cancer, like a braided river. Clin Cancer Res; 22 (10); 2320–2.© 2016 AACR. See related
