| Popis: | Rationale: Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Currently, targeted therapy has proved highly efficient in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) is considered a validated molecular target in NSCLC. Given the low incidence of MET exon 14 skipping mutation, the planning of precision treatment for patients is a clinical problem that needs to be solved. In this report, we present a MET-positive case that benefited from crizotinib and cabozantinib treatment. Patient concerns: A 77-year-old patient was diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma in our hospital. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) showed a right upper lobe mass (58 × 56 mm, SUVmax 15.6), right hilar enlarged lymph nodes, and multiple bone and left adrenal metastases (c-T3N1M1c). Diagnoses: MET exon 14 mutation (exon14, c.2888-1G>C) was examined using the lung puncture sample by next generation sequencing. Therefore, the patient was diagnosed with late-stage lung adenocarcinoma with MET exon14 skipping gene mutation. Interventions: Crizotinib was given as the first-line treatment from August 2019. Considering the resistance of crizotinib, cabozantinib was given for second-line treatment. Outcomes: Crizotinib was administered (250 mg bid) for 8 months, and her disease achieved partial regression (PR) and progression-free survival (PFS), which lasted for 8 months. The patient also reached PR after the second-line treatment with cabozantinib, and is currently under follow-up, with an overall survival (OS) of >12 months. Lessons: As MET exon 14 skipping mutation is rare in clinical practices, MET-TKIs (tyrosine kinase inhibitors) treatment can boost curative effects and improve prognosis of patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma. This case report supports a rationale for the treatment of lung adenocarcinoma patients with a MET exon 14 skipping mutation and provides alternative treatment options for these types of NSCLC patients. |
