Published: Sept. 7, 2021, 8:36 p.m.

A new study has helped to define MET amplification as a rare but potentially actionable driver for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The paper, titled \u201cCrizotinib in Patients With MET-Amplified NSCLC,\u201d published in the Journal of Thoracic Oncology, introduces a third means of defining NSCLC subsets that can be targeted with a specific drug. In this episode, journalist Peter Goodwin interviews study author D. Ross Camidge, MD, PhD, Director of Thoracic Oncology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, on the recent findings.
