Prognosis and Concurrent Genomic Alterations in Patients With Advanced NSCLC Harboring MET Amplification or MET Exon 14 Skipping Mutation Treated With MET Inhibitor: A Retrospective Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

MET amplification or METex14 skipping mutations are uncommon oncogenic events in NSCLC patients. Clinicopathological characteristics, concurrent gene alterations, and prognosis of MET TKIs in these patients are yet to be elucidated.

Methods

We retrospectively analyzed the genomic profiles of 43 MET amplifications or 31 METex14 skipping mutations in NSCLC patients with no previous treatment with EGFR TKIs. Survival outcomes were analyzed in evaluable patients receiving MET TKI treatment: MET amplification cohort (n = 29) and METex14 skipping mutation cohort (n = 29).

Results

Among evaluable patients, a shorter PFS was observed in the MET amplification cohort than in the METex14 skipping mutation cohort (7.0 months vs. 11.0 months, P = 0.043). Concurre
