| KIT exon9 | gastrointestinal stromal tumor | sensitive | Sunitinib | Guideline | Actionable | Sutent (sunitinib) is included in guidelines as second-line or subsequent therapy for locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) patients harboring sensitizing mutations, such as KIT exon 9 mutations (PMID: 34560242; ESMO.org). | detail... 34560242 |
| KIT exon9 | gastrointestinal stromal tumor | sensitive | Sunitinib | Clinical Study - Cohort | Actionable | In a retrospective analysis, GIST patients with KIT exon 9 mutations showed improved progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival, and objective response rate (ORR) compared to patients with exon 11 mutations, with a median PFS of 12.3 months vs. 7.0 months, and an ORR of 19% (8/42) vs. 6% (9/143) following treatment with Sutent (sunitinib) (PMID: 26772734). | 26772734 |
