MET exon 14 skipping mutation, amplification and overexpression in pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma: A multi-center study.


ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:High frequency of MNNG HOS transforming (MET) exon 14 skipping mutation (MET exon 14?) has been reported in pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinomas (PSCs). However, the frequencies differ greatly. Our study aims to investigate the frequency of MET alterations and the correlations among MET exon 14?, amplification, and protein overexpression in a large cohort of PSCs. MET exon 14?, amplification, and protein overexpression were detected in 124 surgically resected PSCs by using Sanger sequencing, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), and immunohistochemistry (IHC) respectively. MET exon 14? was identified in 9 (7.3%) of 124 cases, including 6 pleomorphic carcinomas, 2 spindle cell carcinomas and 1 carcinosarcoma. MET amplification and protein overexpression were detected in 6 PSCs (4.8%) and 25 PSCs (20.2%), respectively. MET amplification was significantly associated with overexpression (P?

<h4>Background</h4>High frequency of MNNG HOS transforming (MET) exon 14 skipping mutation (MET exon 14Δ) has been reported in pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinomas (PSCs). However, the frequencies differ greatly. Our study aims to investigate the frequency of MET alterations and the correlations among MET exon 14Δ, amplification, and protein overexpression in a large cohort of PSCs.
