Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: MET inhibitors can be effective therapies in patients with MET exon 14 (METex14) mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, long-term efficacy is limited by the development of drug resistance. In this study, we characterize acquired amplification of wild-type (WT) KRAS as a molecular mechanism behind crizotinib resistance in three cases of METex14-mutant NSCLC and propose a combination therapy...
