Gain of chromosome arm 8q is a frequent genetic alteration in breast and prostate cancer. Two amplified subregions, 8q21 and 8q23-24, have been identified with comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). We have recently demonstrated that the EIF3S3 (eIF3-p40) gene, located at 8q23, is often amplified

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. The purpose of this study was to determine whether racial disparities in cancer therapy had diminished since the time they were initially documented in the early 1990s. ## METHODS. The authors identified a cohort of patients in the SEERβMedicare linked database who wer
Loss of DNA sequences within human chromosomal band 7q31.2 is frequently observed in a number of different solid tumors including breast, prostate, and ovarian cancer. This chromosomal band also contains the common fragile site, FRA7G. Many of the common fragile sites occur within chromosomal region
