摘要: Abstract Mutation-activated signaling from the KIT and PDGFRA kinases has been successfully targeted in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), with subtle differences between mutations serving to refine prognosis more precisely tailor therapy. There is a growing understanding of molecular drivers GISTs lacking or PDGFRA, so called wild-type GISTs, further aiding management decisions. This article provides an overview all known subtypes GIST information about clinical correlates, treatment, depending on subtype.
