| Usage: |
ROS1 is a receptor tyrosine kinase with structural similarity to an Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) protein. In patients with Non-Small Cell Lung cancer (NSCLC), ROS1 expression is found in approximately 2% of these patients who tend to be younger with a median age of 49 years, no history of smoking & a diagnosis of Adenocarcinoma. Detection of ROS1 in lung cancer is important for optimal treatment as it can be efficiently inhibited by tyrosine kinase inhibitor Crizotinib. |
