ABSTRACT: Background
TP53 mutations are the most prevalent mutations detected in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and have been revealed as a negative prognostic biomarker of outcome. The impact of concomitant TP53 mutations in ALK-rearranged NSCLC remains uncertain.Methods
Tumor samples from 64 ALK-rearranged NSCLC patients receiving crizotinib treatment were subjected to next-generation sequencing (NGS) to identify TP53 mutational status. The clinicopathologic features of the TP53 mutations and its impact on the effect of crizotinib treatment were analyzed.Results
Among the 64 ALK-rearranged patients, 15 (23.4%) patients showed a TP53 mutation. Of these, six cases had disruptive mutations and nine with nondisruptive mutations. The objective response rate (ORR) and disease
