Abstract
Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare and highly aggressive hematological malignancy, there is no standard treatment and the prognosis is very poor. Affiliated Zhongshan Hospital of Dalian University report a case of 85-year-old BPDCN male patient treated with DVT regimen (decitabine combined with Venetoclax and thalidomide) and achieved complete remission. The patient with skin nodules and the pathology diagnosed BPDCN, the next generation sequencing of skin nodules showed mutations of IDH2 and ASXL1. DVT (decitabine combined with Venetoclax and thalidomide) has significant efficacy with rapid and deep remission for BPDCN, and the adverse effects is less, especially suitable for elderly patients who cannot tolerate intense chemotherapy.

Abstract
Brain metastases are the major cause of life-expectancy shortened for patients with lung cancer. The prognostic value of EGFR mutation subtypes and survival benefit of EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with de novo brain metastasis is still not clear. Here, we present a real-world study nation-wide focusing on the prognostic value of genomic and therapeutic factors in overall survival (OS) of those patients. We enrolled a total of 233 patients diagnosed with advanced NSCLC and de novo BM from multi-medical centers across China. The enrolled patients were divided into 4 groups, including EGFR 19del, EGFR L858R, EGFR wild-type, and EGFR unknown groups. The median OS of patients with EGFR mutations and all patients were 29.0 and 25.0 months, respectively. There was significant difference in OS of patients among EGFR 19del (n=76), EGFR L858R (n=94), EGFR wild-type (n=46) and EGFR unknown (n=17) groups (30.5 vs 27.5 vs 16.0 vs 25.0, P=0.025). Patients treated by icotinib showed better OS than gefitinib and erlotinib (31.0 vs 25.5 vs 26.5, P=0.02). There was a difference in OS of patients received the whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT), stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), or WBRT+SRS (20.0 vs 31.0 vs 30.0 months, P<0.001), respectively. In multivariate analysis, patients treated with icotinib had superior iPFS benefit than gefitinib and erlotinib (HR=0.86[95%CI (0.74-1.0)], P=0.04). Besides, the histology of non-adenocarcinomas, the number of BM (>3), and extracranial metastases status could have an independent negative impact on the OS of all patients (P<0.001). EGFR mutant NSCLC patients with de novo BM had a better OS than patients with EGFR wild type. Patients treated with icotinib had longer iPFS than gefitinib and erlotinib but not in OS. Non-adenocarcinomas, number of BM (>3) and extracranial metastases were independent negative prognostic factors in iPFS and OS of all patients. Prospective clinical trials are warranted to explore more effective multimodality in this population.

Abstract
Background: Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC), an aggressive and rare malignancy with poor prognosis, is mostly associated with the overexpression of the androgen receptor (AR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). However, limited data are available for the targeting of both HER2 and AR in advanced/metastatic SDC. Case Presentation: A 62-year-old man with advanced SDC accompanied by lung and lymph node metastasis showed disease progression after two lines of chemotherapy and endocrine therapy. Metastatic lesions from the lung biopsy were obtained, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) indicated the overexpression of AR and HER2 (3+). The patient was administered pyrotinib (a pan-ErbB receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor) and bicalutamide (an androgen receptor antagonist) as a third-line treatment. During the ten months of follow-up, a durable partial response was achieved with this combination. Conclusions: This is the first clinical study to report the successful application of pyrotinib in a patient with advanced SDC. We recommend that pyrotinib and bicalutamide be used as salvage therapy for AR and HER2-positive advanced metastases in SDC, given the favorable response and clinical benefit.

Abstract
Background Chemotherapy is the major choice for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with epidermal growth factor receptor exon 20 insertion (EGFR ex20ins). The efficacy of pemetrexed-based with other chemotherapy regimens and EGFR ex20ins subtypes in this population has not been well studied. Methods We screened patients with EGFR ex20ins by next-generation sequencing (NGS) from a large cohort. The clinicopathologic and medical information were collected in advanced NSCLC patients with EGFR ex20ins. We also compared the clinical outcomes among patients with different subtypes of EGFR ex20ins. Results We retrospectively collected 119 stage IIIB/IV NSCLC patients with EGFR ex20ins from 9142 NSCLC patients across China from June 2013 to December 2018. The subtypes of EGFR ex20ins included A767_V769dupASV (33/119, 27.73%), S768_D770dupSVD (19/119, 15.97%), N771_H773dupNPH (11/119, 9.24%), A763_Y764insFQEA (2/119, 1.68%) and others (54/119, 45.38%). A total of 64.7% (77/119) of patients received pemetrexed-based first-line chemotherapy and 13.45% (16/119) of patients received pemetrexed-based second-line chemotherapy. Pemetrexed-based chemo-treated patients had longer median progression-free survival (PFS) than patients without pemetrexed-based chemo-treated (5.5 vs. 3.0 months, P=0.0026). Survival data was available for 66 patients and the median overall survival (OS) was 24.7 months. Pemetrexed-based chemo-treated patients had longer OS tendency than patients without pemetrexed-based chemo-treated (25.0 vs. 19.6 months, P=0.0769). Patients harboring A767_V769dupASV had better OS than other subtypes of EGFR ex20ins but without statistical significance (P=0.0676). Multivariate analysis revealed that histological type of NSCLC and bone-metastasis before treatment were independent prognostic factors for OS in all patients after adjusting all characteristic and treatment factors (P<0.05). Conclusions To the best of our knowledge, it is the largest cohort study of advanced NSCLC patients with EGFR ex20ins across China. Pemetrexed-based treatment could have better control of disease than non-pemetrexed-based chemotherapies in this population. Furthermore, more effective agents are expected for patients harboring EGFR ex20ins.

Abstract
Background BRAF mutation plays a rare but aggressive oncogenic role in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The controversy of first-line chemotherapy in patients with different BRAF mutations exists. Here, we identified 41 stage IIIB/IV NSCLC patients with BRAF mutation from 3,669 NSCLC patients by next-generation sequencing (NGS) testing of ctDNA in plasma or tumor tissues. Methods Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to compare the prognostic difference of progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in different classes of BRAF mutations. Multivariate Cox proportional-hazards regression was used to determine the hazard ratio (HR) of different prognostic factors in survival. Results A total of 40 stage IIIB/IV NSCLC patients with BRAF mutation were further divided into four groups according to the updated functional classification of BRAF mutations, 56.1% (23/41) of class 1, 12.2% (5/41) of class 2, 12.2% (5/41) of class 3 and 19.5% (8/41) of others. The median PFS of patients after first-line pemetrexed-based chemotherapy was longer than other regimens of chemotherapy (7.0 vs. 4.0 months, P<0.001). The patients with class 1 BRAF mutation treated with pemetrexed-based first-line chemotherapy had a better OS than other regimens of chemotherapy (30 vs. 22 months, P<0.001). A significant improvement of OS was observed in patients with class 1 BRAF mutation than other groups (25 vs. 12, 15 and 14 months, P<0.0001). Multivariate analysis showed that first-line pemetrexed-based chemotherapy was associated with better PFS and OS (HR =0.16 and 0.31, respectively; P<0.001 and 0.02, respectively), as well as improved OS in patients with class 1 BRAF mutation than other classes (HR =2.15, P<0.001). Conclusions Pemetrexed-based regimen could be considered as first-line chemotherapy in advanced NSCLC patients with BRAF mutants when target therapy is unavailable, especially in patients harboring class 1 mutations compared with other classes.

Abstract
Introduction: Oncogenic mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) occur frequently in patients with lung cancer. These mutations may serve as critical predictive biomarkers in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Among them, EGFR exon 18–25 kinase domain duplication (EGFR-KDD) mutations have been identified as a novel EGFR gene subtype in NSCLC. Case Presentation: We reported a rare case of a 59-year-old male diagnosed with adenocarcinoma. A biopsy revealed an EGFR-KDD identified by the next generation sequencing (NGS). Effective treatment outcome has been observed after administration with afatinib. Conclusion: This case highlights that comprehensive NGS technique is valuable in detecting novel genetic mutations in tumors.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 19 deletion (E19del) is the most common activating mutation in advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and associates with the sensitivity of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) treatment. However, not all mutant patterns of E19del have been well studied for the limited coverage of regular EGFR mutation testing. Here, we performed a retrospective cohort study of the C-helix E19del in advanced NSCLC patients based on the screening data by the next-generation sequencing (NGS) platform. From May 2012 to December 2019, clinical information and specimen from 7544 consecutive advanced (IIIB/IV) NSCLC patients were collected and screened for EGFR gene mutations by NGS from multicenters in China. The molecular characteristics and responsiveness to first-line EGFR TKIs therapy in NSCLC patients with C-helix E19del were analyzed. The clinical characteristics were also compared between patients with classical E19del and C-helix E19del. Thirty-eight (2.6%) patients with C-helix E19del and 1400 (97.4%) patients with classical E19dels were identified from 1438 patients with E19del. No significant difference in clinical characteristics was observed between the C-helix E19del and classical E19del groups (P > .05), except for histology (P < .001). All 22 patients with C-helix E19del as p.S752_I759del, p.A750_E758del, p.A750_E758delinsP, p.T751_A755delinsNY, p.T751_I759delinsG, p.T751_I759delinsLD, p.T751_I759delinsN, p.T751_L760delinsNL, and p.T751_D761delinsLY reached the best response as partial response rate (72.7%), and the progression-free survival (PFS) was 12.0 months. The PFS after EGFR TKIs in patients with C-helix E19del tended to be longer than patients with classical E19del but has no statistical significance (12.0 months vs 8.5 months, P = .06). The C-helix E19del could be a positive biomarker for predicting response to EGFR TKIs in advanced NSCLC patients. NGS should be the appropriate platform to identify this rare population, especially when patients harbor no actionable driver mutation initially and are reluctant to accept chemotherapy as first-line therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Transforming anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene rearrangements are well known as a unique subset of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with mutations other than EGFR. Currently, crizotinib is the standard first-line treatment for ALK-positive NSCLC. MATERIALS AND METHODS With advances in detection methods, more and more uncommon ALK fusion partners have been identified. Herein we present a novel SOS1-ALK fusion and the efficacy of crizotinib in an advanced NSCLC patient harboring this type of fusion. RESULTS A 52-year-old Chinese man had left upper lobe primary NSCLC and synchronous multiple lung metastases (cT2N3M1, stage IV). The ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology of palpable left supraclavicular lymph nodes and the results of immunohistochemistry staining supported the diagnosis of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Using a next-generation sequencing assay (NGS), we showed that the tumor had a SOS1-ALK fusion which the breakpoints was (S2, A20) rather than other actionable mutations. Therefore, the patient received first-line crizotinib and experienced a remarkable tumor response and has tolerated crizotinib well until this writing. CONCLUSION Considering this rare SOS1-ALK fusion and remarkable response to an ALK-inhibitor, it is important to be aware of the presence of SOS1-ALK fusions in patients with advanced NSCLC to better guide targeted therapy. Precision methods, such as NGS for oncogenic alteration detection, should also be encouraged in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND KRAS gene mutations are well known as a key driver of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The impact of KRAS-mutant subtypes on the survival benefit from salvage chemotherapy is controversial. Here, we present a real-world study in patients across China with advanced NSCLC with KRAS mutations using a website-based patient self-report system. METHODS We identified a total of 75 patients diagnosed with KRAS-mutant (determined by molecular sequencing) advanced NSCLC between 2014/5/9 and 2019/5/30. KRAS mutation subtypes were divided into G12C and non-G12C groups for statistical analysis. The clinicopathological characteristics and treatment survival benefit in all patients with a KRAS mutation were evaluated. Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression data were collected from 30 patients in the same cohort. RESULTS In this study, 23 patients with stage IIIB NSCLC and 52 patients with stage IV NSCLC were enrolled with 58 men and 17 women; the median age was 60 years (39-84). All patients received regular chemotherapy/radiotherapy/targeted therapy/immune therapy as per the disease condition. Four main KRAS mutation subtypes were detected: G12C (33%), G12V (19%), G12A (12%), and G12D (12%). Three predominant KRAS comutations were detected: TP53-KRAS (31%), EGFR-KRAS (11%), and STK11-KRAS (8%). Compared with the KRAS non-G12C mutation subtype, patients with the KRAS G12C mutation had potentially longer progression-free survival (PFS) after first-line chemotherapy (4.7 vs. 2.5 months, p < 0.05). Pemetrexed-based chemotherapy appeared to be superior to taxanes- and gemcitabine-based chemotherapies in all patients (PFS: 5.0 vs. 1.5 and 2.3 months, respectively, p > 0.05). Cox regression analysis showed that the KRAS G12C mutation and pemetrexed-based first-line chemotherapy were positive influencers for PFS after first-line (hazard ratios = 0.31 and 0.55, respectively, P < 0.05), but not second-line chemotherapies. CONCLUSION The KRAS G12C mutation could be a predictive biomarker for better survival benefit from first-line chemotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC and KRAS mutations. The first-line chemotherapy regimen could possibly influence the outcome in patients with KRAS mutations. Larger and prospective clinical trials are warranted to confirm our conclusions.

Abstract
The incidence of epidermal growth factor receptor uncommon mutation (EGFRum) is relatively low and patients harboring EGFRum are resistant to the first-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). However, the mechanism of primary resistance remains unclear. Medical records of 98 patients who had never been treated by TKI and who accepted icotinib treatment were collected and followed. The circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) were detected and analyzed using the next-generation sequencing (NGS) platform after progression on icotinib. The potential primary resistance mechanism of icotinib was explored. A total of 21 (21.4%) and 48 (49%) patients developed primary and acquired resistance to icotinib, respectively. The median progression-free survival (PFS) of primary resistance patients was 1.8 months (0.5-2.3, 95% CI = 1.50-2.10). Before treatment, 52.4% (11/21) of patients carried S768I, 23.8% (5/21) L861Q, 14.3% (3/21) G719X and 14.3% (3/21) exon 20-ins mutations. Approximately 23.8% (5/21) of patients harbored the combined pattern mutations and 76.2% (16/21) of patients harbored the single pattern mutations. The combined pattern with EGFR classical mutation (EGFRcm) had worse PFS than the combined with EGFRum and single pattern (P < .05). There were 6 (28.57%) patients with acquired EGFR extracellular domain mutation, 5 (23.81%) with BCL2L11 loss (BIM deletion polymorphism), 3 (14.29%) with MET amplification, 1 (4.76%) with ERBB2 amplification, 1 (4.76%) with MYC amplification, 1 (4.76%) with PTEN mutation, 1 (4.76%) with PIK3CA mutation and 3 (14.29%) with unknown status. EGFR extracellular domain mutation, BCL2L11 loss, PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway (PTEN and PIK3CA mutations), MET amplification, ERBB2 amplification or MYC amplification might contribute to molecular mechanisms of primary resistance to icotinib in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer harboring uncommon mutant epidermal growth factor receptor. Combined targeted therapy or chemotherapy should be considered in this population.

Abstract
The response to icotinib in advanced non‐small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) with EGFR uncommon mutation (EGFRum) is unclear. Here we reported the efficacy and potential resistance mechanism of icotinib in Chinese EGFRum NSCLC patients. Between July 2013 and November 2016, 3117 NSCLC patients were screened for EGFRum in a multi‐center study in China. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) was detected and analyzed using next‐generation sequencing (NGS) after progression from icotinib. The efficacy, safety and the potential resistance mechanism of icotinib were explored. After a median follow‐up of 6.2 months, 69 patients (70.41%) developed disease progression, the objective rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were 13.27% and 29.59% respectively, and the median progression‐free survival (PFS) was 5.5 months (95% CI: 1.2‐13.0 months). Both complex‐pattern with EGFR classical mutations (EGFRcm) and single‐pattern have better PFS than complex‐pattern without EGFRcm (median PFS was 7.2 (95% CI: 4.65‐9.75), 5.2 (95% CI: 3.24‐7.16) and 3.2 (95% CI: 2.97‐3.44) months, respectively, P < .05); patients harboring S768I mutation had the worst PFS than others (2.0 months, P < .05). Diarrhea was the most frequent side effect (42.9%). Forty‐eight (69.6%) patients developed drug resistance after 3.0 months and 81.2% of them acquired T790M mutation. Better response was observed in complex‐pattern with the EGFRcm group. S768I mutation carriers may not benefit from icotinib. Acquired T790M mutation was common in icotinib‐resistant EGFRum NSCLC patients.

Abstract
For chondrosarcoma, metastasis to the thyroid gland is extremely rare. The diagnosis and treatment of thyroid metastasis from chondrosarcoma are discussed here.We found a case of thyroid malignancy occurring after treatment of chondrosarcoma. We reviewed patient characteristics, histological presentations on initial chondrosarcoma and thyroid metastasis, treatments, times of recurrence and death. In addition, we searched Embase, PubMed, and ISI Web of Science databases (1996-2018) for articles published in the English language using the key words "chondrosarcoma" and "thyroid" and we reviewed almost all the reports about thyroid metastasis from chondrosarcoma.Only 5 cases of chondrosarcoma metastases in the thyroid gland have been reported in the literature. We found that most patients are adults, with compression signs or pain, most of whom have poor prognoses. The main examinations are ultrasound, CT and fine needle aspiration biopsy, and primary treatment is surgery.These rare cases of chondrosarcoma presenting as a metastasis in the thyroid gland highlight the importance of close communication between radiologists, histopathologists, and clinicians to ensure that such exceptional cases are not missed.

Abstract
Non-thyroid malignancies to the thyroid gland resulting from distant metastases are extremely rare, and such cases are rarely seen in clinical settings. The question of how a tumor metastasizes to the thyroid remains unanswered. Here we report a case of lung adenocarcinoma metastasizing to the thyroid gland. The article covers the pathological features, treatments, examination reports, and the postoperative follow-up reviews of the patient. In this article, we discuss the diagnostic method, the spread route, the prognosis, the mechanism and above all, the treatment. In addition, we searched the PubMed and ISI Web of Science databases for articles published in English using the key words "lung", "thyroid", and "metastasis", and we reviewed nearly all the reports about thyroid malignancies being metastasized from lung cancer. This rare case emphasizes the importance of the multifaceted comprehensiveness of the cephalometry diagnosis, pathological diagnosis, and immunohistochemical analysis to ensure that such rare cases are not missed. We declare that all cases of thyroid malignancies metastasized from the lungs shall be reported at large for further clinical research.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the value of planned neck dissection combined with induction chemotherapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy in regional control and the outcome of locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Methods: A prospective randomized controlled study totally enrolled sixty-four patients of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas(include oropharynx, hypopharynx, and larynx) in stages Ⅳa-Ⅳb with lymph node metastase was were N2-N3. All patients firstly received 2-3 cycles of induction chemotherapy(ICT), then divided into two groups randomly, according to the efficacy of ICT. Group A(the study group) received planned neck dissection(PND) and concurrent chemoradiotherapy(CCRT). Group B(the control group) received concurrent chemoradiotherapy(CCRT). The differences in clinicopathologic features, local recurrence(LR), regional recurrence(RR), disease-free survival(DFS), and overall survival(OS) between the two groups were estimated. SPSS 19.0 software was used to analyze the data. Results: Group A enrolled twenty-one patients, and group B enrolled forty-three patients.The follow-up of all patients were 4-55 months, median follow-up time was 22 months. In study group, two-year OS and DFS were 80.9% and 68.3%, respectively. In control group, two-year OS and DFS were 90.7% and 67.1%, respectively. There was no significant difference in gender(P=0.215), age(P=0.828), primary tumor site(P=0.927), LR(P=0.126), DFS(P=0.710), and OS(P=0.402) between the two groups, while the RR(χ(2)=5.640, P<0.05) and distant metastasis(χ(2)=10.363, P<0.01) showed significant differences between the two groups. Conclusion: The ICT+ PND+ CCRT treatment model has benefit on regional control of locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Abstract
The differential diagnoses of reactive arthritis presenting as arthralgia should be considered as diverse disorders, especially when the symptoms cannot be fully explained by some definite diseases. Do not ignore the indication of bone marrow aspiration. We reported a 50-year-old woman who complained of arthralgia, recurrent fever and rash 9 months ago. Laboratory exams showed mild leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia and increased lymphocyte proportion. She was treated with glucocorticoid after the diagnosis of connective tissue disease was suspected. Until platelet count abruptly decreased to very low level, the final diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia was made through bone marrow morphology, flow cytometry, and chromosome examination. Therefore, a small number of leukemia is not easily diagnosed by routine operations. Thus when diagnoses are not determined with recurrent symptoms, cautious observation and further examination are required to avoid misdiagnoses or missed diagnoses of acute leukemia.

Abstract
ROS1 rearrangement occurs in 1–2% of non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cases. These patients would benefit from treatment with the anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitor, crizotinib; however, resistance to crizotinib inevitably develops in such patients despite an initial response. The mechanism of acquired resistance to crizotinib in patients with NSCLC with ROS1 rearrangement has not yet been identified. Herein, we report a case of a 66‐year‐old woman diagnosed with adenocarcinoma. PCR revealed no EGFR or ALK mutations. After the patient underwent several rounds of chemotherapy, crizotinib was administered. The disease explosively progressed six months later. A novel PIK3CA gene point mutation (p.L531P) was detected by next generation sequencing. This case is the second report of bypass activation conferred crizotinib resistance in a patient with NSCLC with ROS1‐rearrangement, but is the first to confirm that activation of the mTOR signaling pathway leads to acquired crizotinib resistance.

Abstract
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangement responds to ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in lung cancer. Many cases ultimately acquire resistance to crizotinib. Resistance, including ALK-dominant or ALK non-dominant, mechanisms have been described. Transformation to small-cell lung cancer is rare. Herein, we report a 49-year-old man diagnosed with adenocarcinoma, who was negative for EGFR and ALK genes as detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, and was treated with crizotinib. A new biopsy showed a small-cell lung cancer after disease progression. Then, next-generation sequencing (NGS) was carried out and detected a TP53 gene mutation, an ALK rearrangement, and no loss of the retinoblastoma gene (RB). Although a regimen for small-cell lung cancer may be one treatment option, a heterogeneous tumor may exist at the time of diagnosis and manifest during the course of disease.

Abstract
Background c‐MET has recently been identified as a promising novel target in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We detected the consistency of c‐MET gene amplification in metastatic lymph nodes and tumor tissues of NSCLC patients and discuss the clinical application value of c‐MET gene amplification in metastatic lymph nodes. Methods Real‐time fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to test tumor tissues in 368 NSCLC patients and 178 paired metastatic lymph node samples. The amplification consistency in metastatic lymph nodes and tissue samples were compared and the correlation between c‐MET gene amplification and the clinical characteristics of patients was analyzed. Results The c‐MET gene amplification rate was 8.97% (33/368) in tumor tissues. Of the 178 paired cases, c‐MET gene amplification was positive in 7.95% (15/178) of cancerous tissues and 18.54% (33/178) of metastatic lymph nodes. c‐MET gene amplification was detected more frequently in metastatic lymph nodes than in primary cancerous tissue. When metastatic lymph nodes were used as surrogate samples of primary cancerous tissues, the sensitivity was 86.67% (13/15) and the specificity was 87.69% (143/163). Conclusions Screening for c‐MET gene amplification in lymph node metastases could determine which patients are eligible for tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy. Lymph node metastasis can predict c‐MET gene amplification in a primary tumor and guide the clinical use of c‐MET gene targeted drugs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this meta-analysis is to evaluate the distribution pattern of KRAS and BRAF mutations in colorectal cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS The database was searched without language restrictions. Meta-analyses were conducted using the STATA software. We calculated the odds ratio (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (95% CI) to estimate the distribution of and correlation between KRAS and BRAF mutations, CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP), and microsatellite instability (MSI) in left- and right-sided colorectal cancer. RESULTS The studies were divided into five groups: (1) distribution of KRAS/BRAF mutations in distal and proximal colorectal cancer, the summary OR value was 1.24 versus 4.03, (2) distribution of KRAS/BRAF mutations in CIMP-low/Neg and CIMP-high (CIMP-H) tumors, the summary OR value was 0.77 versus 10.49, (3) distribution of KRAS/BRAF mutations in MSI-low (MSI-L)/microsatellite stable (MSS) and MSI-high (MSI-H) tumors, the summary OR value was 0.51 versus 9.60, (4) proportion of CIMP-H/MSI-H tumors among distal and proximal colorectal tumors, the summary OR value was 3.66 versus 6.54, and (5) proportion of CIMP-H tumors among MSI-L/MSS and MSI-H tumors, the summary OR value was 5.87. CONCLUSION The meta-analysis reveals that KRAS has a slightly higher mutation rate in MSI-L/MSS tumors. Moreover, BRAF mutations have higher detection rates in right-sided colorectal cancer, which suggests that BRAF mutations are likely in CIMP-H tumors. Therefore, based on these findings, the molecular diagnostic tests to be conducted in colorectal cancer patients can be determined according to the location/clinical features of the tumor.
