“…The most common driver events are KRAS, EGFR, ALK, and mesenchymal epithelial transition factor (MET); a plethora of less common but treatable alterations including RET, ROS1, HER2, BRAF V600E, and neurotropic tyrosine receptor kinase were also identified. 11 In parallel, drug development has proceeded at an incredible pace, which has resulted in several mutation-selective small-molecule inhibitors that induce clinical responses with relatively minimal adverse events. These agents were conducive to being used by patients for several months to a few years without undue impact on their quality of life.…”
