Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the clinical characteristics of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangements and sequence complexity of the ALK fusion gene in Chinese lung cancer patients. METHODS: We prospectively screened ALK rearrangements in 1474 lung cancer specimens, including 1387 cases of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), 54 cases of small cell lung cancer (SCLC), and 33 cases of cancer with lung...
