Phylogenetic trees from WES of two patients with metastatic cancer. The shared EGFR mutation is annotated on the tree. Numbers on branches are mutations that accumulated between two nodes. Numbers in parentheses are exonic mutations that are not in the FFPE context. These trees show a long trunk of shared mutations before branching into separate clones. Consistently, the pie charts are made up of mixtures of clones that are shared between tumors.
