MET Amplification in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)—A Consecutive Evaluation Using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) in a Real-World Setting
7 Oct 2021
Abstract excerpt
In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), approximately 1–3% of cases harbor an increased gene copy number (GCN) of the MET gene. This alteration can be due to de novo amplification of the MET gene or can represent a secondary resistance mechanism in response to targeted therapies. To date, the gold standard method to evaluate the GCN of MET is fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). However, next-generation...
