A major challenge in analyzing cancer patient transcriptomes is that the tumors are inherently heterogeneous and evolving. We analyzed 214 bulk RNA samples of a longitudinal, prospective ovarian cancer cohort and found that the sample composition changes systematically due to chemotherapy and between the anatomical sites, preventing direct comparison of treatment-naive and treated samples.
