Popis: Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common malignant bone tumor, and its sensitivity to preoperative chemotherapy is a significant prognostic factor. The present study aimed to identify potential genomic markers for the prediction of chemosensitivity in patients with OS using a genomic approach. A total of 50 pediatric and adolescent patients diagnosed with high‑grade OS were selected. Each pre‑therapeutic biopsy sample was subjected to comparative genomic hybridization array analysis and targeted exome sequencing. Although no recurrent gene mutation was observed in chemoresistant tumors, copy number analysis detected recurrent gain of chromosome 12q14.1, which was significantly more frequent (5/21; 24%) in the poor responder cohort than in the good responder cohort (0/29; 0%; P
