AC molecular patterns identify distinct molecular subtypes: a clinically indolent RAS-mut/GNAS-wt/TP53-wt subtype; a chemotherapy-resistant GNAS-mut predominant subtype; and an aggressive, highly aneuploid TP53-mut predominant subtype. Each subtype exhibits conserved clinical behavior irrespective of histopathology.
