miRNA screening for germ cell tumours

Dr Murray speaks with ecancertv at Childhood Cancer 2016 about his research, made possible by a grant from Children with Cancer UK.

He sets out how miRNA profiles of malignant germ cell tumours identified conserved clusters in patients, which have informed screening and targeting for these 'red flags'.

Dr Murray outlines the diagnostic significance of screening and possible combined therapies against these conserved mutant miRNAs for both high and low risk patient subgroups.
