      abstract     = {Transcript alterations often result from somatic changes in
                      cancer genomes1. Various forms of RNA alterations have been
                      described in cancer, including overexpression2, altered
                      splicing3 and gene fusions4; however, it is difficult to
                      attribute these to underlying genomic changes owing to
                      heterogeneity among patients and tumour types, and the
                      relatively small cohorts of patients for whom samples have
                      been analysed by both transcriptome and whole-genome
                      sequencing. Here we present, to our knowledge, the most
                      comprehensive catalogue of cancer-associated gene
                      alterations to date, obtained by characterizing tumour
                      transcriptomes from 1,188 donors of the Pan-Cancer Analysis
                      of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) Consortium of the International
                      Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) and The Cancer Genome Atlas
                      (TCGA)5. Using matched whole-genome sequencing data, we
                      associated several categories of RNA alterations with
                      germline and somatic DNA alterations, and identified
                      probable genetic mechanisms. Somatic copy-number alterations
                      were the major drivers of variations in total gene and
                      allele-specific expression. We identified 649 associations
                      of somatic single-nucleotide variants with gene expression
                      in cis, of which $68.4\%$ involved associations with
                      flanking non-coding regions of the gene. We found 1,900
                      splicing alterations associated with somatic mutations,
                      including the formation of exons within introns in proximity
                      to Alu elements. In addition, $82\%$ of gene fusions were
                      associated with structural variants, including 75 of a new
                      class, termed 'bridged' fusions, in which a third genomic
                      location bridges two genes. We observed transcriptomic
                      alteration signatures that differ between cancer types and
                      have associations with variations in DNA mutational
                      signatures. This compendium of RNA alterations in the
                      genomic context provides a rich resource for identifying
                      genes and mechanisms that are functionally implicated in
                      cancer.},
