Title:

Acquired Resistance Mutations to ALK Inhibitors Identified by Single Circulating Tumor Cell Sequencing in ALK-Rearranged Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer

Published date:

Excerpt:
We investigated the VAF of resistance mutations in CTCs from 14 ALK-rearranged patients progressing on crizotinib...The ALKR1275Q mutation (VAF, 8%) described as activating in patients with neuroblastoma was found in a CTC specimen of P32 but not in the tumor biopsy, as well as nine “off-target” mutations including TP53 (VAF range, 3%–25%; ref. 50).
