MET gene amplification is a mechanism of resistance to entrectinib in ROS1+ NSCLC.

ABSTRACT:

Background

ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have demonstrated significant clinical benefit for ROS1+ NSCLC patients. However, TKI resistance inevitably develops through ROS1 kinase domain (KD) modification or another kinase driving bypass signaling. While multiple TKIs have been designed to target ROS1 KD mutations, less is known about bypass signaling in TKI-resistant ROS1+ lung cancers.

Methods

Utilizing a primary, patient-derived TPM3-ROS1 cell line (CUTO28), we derived an entrectinib-resistant line (CUTO28-ER). We evaluated proliferation and signaling responses to TKIs, and utilized RNA sequencing, whole exome sequencing, and fluorescence in situ hybridization to detect transcriptional, mutational, and copy number alterations, respectively. We substantiated in vitr
