Real-time PCR assay to detect exon 14 skipping mutation in the MET gene
Exon 14 skipping results in the deletion of the juxtamembrane domain, which leads to enhanced signaling through the MET receptor pathway. MET exon 14 skipping mutation are found in 3~4% of lung cancer patients with both the presence and absence of MET amplification.
Tumors harboring MET with exon 14 skipping and/or MET amplifications have increased sensitivity to MET inhibitors, such as Crizotinib and Cabozantinib.
