Shrnutí:Treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activating mutation with EGFR-TKIs has achieved great success, yet faces the development of acquired resistance as the major obstacle to long-term disease remission in the clinic. MET (or c-MET ) gene amplification has long been known as an important resistance mechanism to first- or second-generation EGFR-TKIs in addition to the appearance of T790 M mutation. Recent preclinical and clinical studies have suggested that MET amplification and/or protein hyperactivation is likely to be a key mechanism underlying acquired resistance to third-generation EGFR-TKIs such as osimertinib as well, particularly when used as a first-line therapy. EGFR-mutant NSCLCs that have relapsed from first-generation EGFR-TKI treatment and have MET amplification and/or protein hyperactivation should be insensitive to osimertinib monotherapy. Therefore, combinatorial therapy with osimertinib and a MET or even a MEK inhibitor should be considered for these patients with resistant NSCLC carrying MET amplification and/or protein hyperactivation.
