Since the discovery of <i>RET</i> fusion-positive (<i>RET+</i>) NSCLC around late 2011 to early 2012, clinical trials of multikinase inhibitors and highly potent and selective RET tyrosine kinase inhibitors have indicated that <i>RET</i> fusion is an actionable oncogenic driver in NSCLC. There seems to be a differential response to multikinase inhibitors depending on the fusion partner (<i>KIF5B-RET</i> versus non-<i>KIF5B-RET</i>); thus, knowledge of the fusion partners in <i>RET+</i> NSCLC is ...[more]
