The follow-up clinical data on patients who received crizotinib treatment were recorded.Results: Of the 313 MPE samples, 27(8.6%) were confirmed as ALK expression-positive, and the Ventana IHC ALK(D5F3)-positive rate was 17.3%(27/156) in wild-type epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) MPE samples. Twenty-three of the 27 IHC ALK(D5F3)-positive samples were positive by FISH. Of the 11 Ventana IHC ALK(D5F3)-positive patients who received crizotinib therapy, 2 patients had complete response(CR), 5 had partial response(PR) and 3 had stable disease(SD).Conclusions: The ALK gene expression status detected by the Ventana IHC ALK(D5F3) platform in MPE samples may predict tumor responsiveness to crizotinib in Chinese patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma. | Zheng Wang Xiaonan Wu Xiaohong Han Gang Cheng Xinlin Mu Yuhui Zhang Di Cui Chang Liu Dongge Liu Yuankai Shi | 2016 | Chinese Journal of Cancer Research2016，28，6： | 1 |
