Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Acquired secondary mutations in the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene have been identified in ALK-rearranged non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who are resistant to treatment with the ALK inhibitor crizotinib. We sought to uncover novel mutations that contribute to resistance in these patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Following clinical diagnosis and development of crizotinib treatment...
