INTRODUCTIONMET fusions have been described only rarely in NSCLC. Thus, data on patient characteristics and treatment response are limited. We here report histopathologic data, patient demographics, and treatment outcome including response to MET tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy in MET fusion-positive NSCLC.METHODSPatients with NSCLC and MET fusions were identified mostly by RNA sequencing within the routine molecular screening program of the national Network Genomic Medicine, Germany.RESULTSWe describe a cohort of nine patients harboring MET fusions. Among these nine patients, two patients had been reported earlier. The overall frequency was 0.29% (95% confidence interval: 0.15-0.55). The tumors were exclusively adenocarcinoma. The cohort was heterogeneous in terms of age, sex, or smoking status. We saw five different fusion partner genes (KIF5B, TRIM4, ST7, PRKAR2B, and CAPZA2) and several different breakpoints. Four patients were treated with a MET TKI leading to two partial responses, one stable disease, and one progressive disease. One patient had a BRAF V600E mutation as acquired resistance mechanism.CONCLUSIONSMET fusions are very rare oncogenic driver events in NSCLC and predominantly seem in adenocarcinomas. They are heterogeneous in terms of fusion partners and breakpoints. Patients with MET fusion can benefit from MET TKI therapy.
