Background: Adrenocortical cancer (ACC) is an aggressive tumor with heterogeneous prognosis. Previous genomic studies have demonstrated the importance of molecular classification for the prognostic assessment. Among molecular markers, transcriptome profiles “C1A” (steroid and proliferative signature) and “C1B” (immune signature) show the strongest association with outcome. However these markers are determined so far only from frozen tissue samples, sinc...
