Description
Patient 3 from a larger cohort of genotyped patients (n= 78) with imatinib resistant or intolerant gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) harbored a primary (pre-imatinib treatment) KIT K550_K558 deletion. Following failure of imatinib, the GIST was again genotyped, but no secondary mutations were found. The patient started on 50mg sunitinib on a schedule of two weeks on/two weeks off. This patient experienced stable disease less than 6 months; time to progresssion of 14 weeks and overall survival of 17 weeks (Table A1).
