摘要
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangement is a vital driving mutation in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). ALK rearrangements may involve different breakpoints and multiple fusion partners, presenting different therapeutic responses. There are no standard treatment options for rare ALK rearrangements. Here, we report a case of advanced lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) harboring a novel SET domain containing 3 (SETD3)-ALK fusion and sensitive to crizotinib, which has not been previously reported.Molecular and pathological features were confirmed using percutaneous lung biopsy guided by computed tomography (CT), immunohistochemical (IHC) staining and next-generation sequencing (NGS).NGS revealed that a novel SETD3-ALK fusion was detected in the patient with LUAD, and IHC analysis confirmed that this fusion had functional expression. The patient had a progression-free survival (PFS) over 16 months after crizotinib treatment (250 mg b.i.d.), with ongoing clinical response.This case introduces a novel and meaningful ALK fusion type in LUAD with sustained sensitivity to crizotinib, providing a reference to the treatment of similar cases with SETD3-ALK fusion in the future.
