In Demircioglu et al (2019), the authors found that promoter switching for the ERBB2 gene was often associated with mutations in other known oncogenes and tumor suppresor genes. However, they argued that promoter switching may be correlated with cancer development and progression regardless of additional mutations. What evidence did they have to support this idea ? O They found that patients who had ERBB2 promoter switching but no other mutations in known oncogenes (OG) and tumor suppressor genes (TSG) carried many other mutations in genes that may have contributed to cancer progression and had not been identified as OG or TSG yet. O They saw that patients that showed promoter switching but did not have any other identifiable mutations had poorer prognosis than patients without promoter switching This was actually a discussion point; the authors did not have any experimental evidence to support their claim. O They treated all patients that showed promoter switching with the same drug and saw that they responded similarly O They found that patients with the mutations in the known oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes had overall worse prognosis than the general population
