GTF2I Mutations as Genetic Marker for Prognosis of Thymic Malignancies Description of Technology: The present invention describes the presence of a mutation in the general transcription factor IIi (GTF2I) gene in indolent thymic tumors that is rarely found in more aggressive thymic tumors. The invention provides a method of determining the prognosis of thymic cancer in a patient by assaying (for example using PCR based methods) the genetic material obtained from the patient tissue to detect a mutation in at least one copy of GTF2I genetic sequence; and correlating the presence of a GTF2I mutation with the prognosis of a thymic cancer patient, the presence of the mutation indicating that the thymic cancer is indolent. A genetic test will complement the diagnostic assessment, facilitate development of a molecular classification and assessment for the clinical management of thymic cancers. Potential Commercial Applications: • A diagnostic test kit for the prognosis and clinical management of thymic cancer. • Clinical decision whether treatment is needed (for example, additional treatment after surgery). • Therapeutic decision making, between an aggressive course of E:\FR\FM\18MRN1.SGM 18MRN1
