MET gene amplification in Blood or Tissue by Molgen
Active
Term Description
To date, the gold standard method to evaluate the GCN of MET is fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). However, next-generation sequencing (NGS) is becoming more relevant to optimize therapy by revealing the mutational profile of each NSCLC. [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8508248/]

Part Description
LP269809-2 MET gene amplification
MET gene amplification studies evaluate the number of copies of the MET gene present in a single cell. Amplification is determined based on the MET gene copy number and MET to centromere ratio. Different criteria have been proposed for what constitutes amplification, including a MET to centromere ratio of >= 2, an average MET gene copy number >=5, and at least 15 gene copies in 10% of the tumor cell nuclei that were counted. MET amplification is associated with worse prognosis in a variety of cancers, including non-small cell lung and gastroesophageal cancer. PMID: 27926778
