Summary

During the past decade, the treatment of lung adenocarcinomas has been revolutionized with novel molecular targeted therapies. We describe a case of clinical activity of crizotinib in a female patient with a lung adenocarcinoma displaying a MET exon 14 donor splice site mutation (D1028N) detected using next generation sequencing. Within 5 weeks of crizotinib therapy, a partial response was observed in this 67 year-old woman. Further clinical trials of crizotinib are needed for non-small cell lung cancer exhibiting MET mutations.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on antibody–drug conjugates in cancer

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
