Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Activation of MET oncogene as the result of amplification or activation mutation represents an emerging molecular target for cancer treatment. We comprehensively studied MET alterations and the clinicopathologic correlations in a large cohort of treatment-naïve non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Six hundred eighty-seven NSCLCs were tested for MET exon 14 splicing site mutation...
