Genomic copy number predicts esophageal cancer years before transformation
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Recent studies show that aneuploidy and driver gene mutations precede cancer diagnosis by many years 1-4. We assess whether these genomic signals can be used for early detection and pre-emptive cancer treatment using the neoplastic precursor lesion Barrett's esophagus as an exemplar 5. Shallow whole-genome sequencing of 777 biopsies, sampled from 88 patients in Barrett's esophagus surveillance over a period of up to 15 years, shows that genomic signals can distinguish progressive from stable disease even 10 years before histopathological transformation. These findings are validated on two independent cohorts of 76 and 248 patients. These methods are low-cost and applicable to standard clinical biopsy samples. Compared with current management guidelines based on histopathology and clinical presentation, genomic classification enables earlier treatment for high-risk patients as well as reduction of unnecessary treatment and monitoring for patients who are unlikely to develop cancer.

In MGUS and SMM, MAFB translocations associate with high-risk genomic features but do not always predict progression.
“In the context of MGUS and SMM, these translocations still associate with high-risk genomic features,59,97,98 but strangely do not always predict progression as one might expect.9,90,99”
From Evolution of Multiple Myeloma from a Genomic Perspective (2026) · cites this paper as [99]
The Abstract and Methods > Patient cohorts (page numbers unavailable) address copy-number instability and progression in Barrett’s esophagus, not MGUS or SMM. Searches for MAFB translocations, MGUS, and smoldering multiple myeloma found no passage addressing whether those translocations predict progression. (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
