Collection description
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) still represents the main cause of cancer mortality worldwide. However, targeted treatments have significantly improved the clinical outcome of those patients with non-squamous NSCLC harboring not only point mutations and indertions/deletions (indels), but also gene rearrangements. Currently, immunohistochemistry (IHC) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) are considered the "gold standard" methodologies for the identification of these genomic alterations but feature some technical and interpretative limitations. Therefore, the aim of this study is to validate a novel narrow custom next generation sequencing gene panel, termed SiRe gene fusion panel, able to detect gene rearrangements and other aberrations (such MET exon 14 skipping) for the administration of specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
