Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.

KIT exon17 melanoma sensitive Regorafenib Case Reports/Case Series Actionable In a Phase II trial, second or later-line Stivarga (regorafenib) treatment resulted in a disease control rate of 73.9% (17/23, 2 complete responses, 5 partial responses), an objective response rate of 30.4% (7/23), and median overall survival (mOS) of 21.5 months in patients with melanoma harboring KIT exon 9, 11, 13, or 17 mutations, and improved mOS in patients with non-exon 11 mutations compared to patients with exon 11 mutations (24.9 mo vs 18.3 mo, P=0.042) (PMID: 37741071; NCT02501551). 37741071
KIT exon17 melanoma not predictive Pembrolizumab Clinical Study Actionable In a retrospective analysis, real-world treatment with either Keytruda (pembrolizumab) or Toripalimab (JS001) resulted in a median disease-free survival of 33 months in melanoma patients harboring KIT mutations in either exon 11 (64.8%), exon 13 (17.6%), or exon 17 (17.6%) compared to 32 months in patients with wild-type BRAF, NRAS, and KIT (p=0.200) (PMID: 37403699). 37403699
KIT exon17 gastrointestinal stromal tumor predicted - sensitive PLX9486 Phase I Actionable In a Phase I trial, PLX9486 demonstrated safety and preliminary efficacy, resulted in a progression-free survival of more than 24 weeks and partial response in 8.3% (2/24) of patients with advanced solid tumors, 20 of these patients had gastrointestinal stromal tumor that progressed on Gleevec (imatinib mesylate), and most harbored KIT exon 11 and exon 17 mutations (Journal of Clinical Oncology 36, no. 15_suppl (May 20 2018) 11509-11509; NCT02401815). detail...
KIT exon17 gastrointestinal stromal tumor sensitive Avapritinib Phase I Actionable In a Phase I trial, Ayvakit (avapritinib) demonstrated preliminary antitumor activity in gastrointestinal stromal tumor patients harboring KIT mutations, with reduced tumor burden in 38% (5/13) of patients, including 1 partial response and 4 stable diseases, and 3 of the 5 responding patients harbored KIT exon 17 mutations (EORTC-NCI-AACR 2016, Abs 6LBA). detail...
KIT exon17 mucosal melanoma predicted - sensitive Avapritinib Case Reports/Case Series Actionable In a clinical case study, Ayvakit (avapritinib) resulted in a reduction of the metastatic lesions, including brain metastases, in a patient with mucosal melanoma harboring a KIT exon 17 mutation (PMID: 35820244). 35820244
KIT exon17 Advanced Solid Tumor sensitive Avapritinib Preclinical Actionable In a preclinical study, Ayvakit (avapritinib) inhibited Kit phosphorylation and proliferation of various tumor cell lines harboring KIT exon 17 mutations in culture, and induced tumor regression in an allograft animal model (PMID: 29093181). 29093181
KIT exon17 melanoma not predictive Toripalimab-tpzi Clinical Study Actionable In a retrospective analysis, real-world treatment with either Keytruda (pembrolizumab) or Loqtorz (toripalimab-tpzi) resulted in a median disease-free survival of 33 months in melanoma patients harboring KIT mutations in either exon 11 (64.8%), exon 13 (17.6%), or exon 17 (17.6%) compared to 32 months in patients with wild-type BRAF, NRAS, and KIT (p=0.200) (PMID: 37403699). 37403699
KIT exon17 gastrointestinal stromal tumor predicted - sensitive Pexidartinib + PLX9486 Phase I Actionable In a Phase I trial, PLX9486 and Pexidartinib (PLX3397) combination therapy demonstrated safety and preliminary efficacy, resulted in a partial response rate of 8.3% (1/12) and progression-free survival not yet reached in patients with advanced solid tumors, 11 of these patients had gastrointestinal stromal tumor that progressed on Gleevec (imatinib mesylate), and most harbored KIT exon 11 and exon 17 mutations (Journal of Clinical Oncology 36, no. 15_suppl (May 20 2018) 11509-11509; NCT02401815). detail...
