Abstract

A patient with lung cancer carrying ROS1 translocation was treated by crizotinib and then subjected to surgery. Morphological analysis revealed pathologic complete response in surgically removed tissues, while PCR test provided convincing evidence for the presence of residual tumor cells. PCR analysis of lung cancer specific gene translocations allows carrying out highly sensitive and reliable monitoring of tumor disease during the course of treatment.
