Abstract
MET exon 14 skipping (METex14) is a validated oncogenic driver in lung cancer and MET tyrosine kinase inhibitors are now available as effective clinical treatments. The majority of known METex14 alterations are typical donor/acceptor splicing or ubiquitination site mutations. Herein, two new METex14 variants were detected in two patients with lung adenocarcinoma by targeted next generation sequencing (NGS). Reverse transcription (RT)-based analysis confirmed that these mutations led to MET exon 14 skipping. Our analysis provided evidence for possible targeted therapy options for patients carrying these MET mutations or similar METex14 analogs.
