Mesenchymal-Epithelial Transition Factor

Predictive biomarker for patient selection in 15 indications

Understanding MET

What it means: MET alterations include amplification, exon 14 skipping mutations, and overexpression. Drives cancer growth and metastasis.
Why it matters: MET inhibitors (capmatinib, tepotinib) show high response rates in MET exon 14 skipping mutations.
Testing: Tested via NGS for mutations, FISH for amplification, IHC for overexpression. Liquid biopsy can detect MET alterations.
