MET gene amplification is a mechanism of resistance to entrectinib in ROS1+ NSCLC.

Treatment with ROS1-selective inhibitors may lead to MET-mediated resistance. The discovery of ecDNA MET amplification is noteworthy, as ecDNA is associated with more aggressive cancers. Following progression on ROS1-selective inhibitors, MET gene testing and treatments targeting MET should be explored to overcome MET-driven resistance.
