Efficacy and Resistance of ALK Inhibitors in Two Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor Patients with ALK Fusions Assessed by Whole Exome and RNA Sequencing
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC7568619
Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic
Summary: Mutation: L1196Q | Summary: The L1196Q mutation is associated with the development of resistance to ALK inhibitors, indicating its role in tumor progression in the context of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors. This mutation was identified after alectinib resistance developed, leading to the prescription of a newer ALK inhibitor, ceritinib, which resulted in a partial response in the patient.
