Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a powerful tool that has seen a fast increase in clinical labs although only a few NGS tests have been approved by the FDA. However, there have been a lot of debate on if variants from NGS sequencing should be confirmed either by Sanger sequencing, the gold standard, or other techniques such as quantitative PCR, or the combination, or other methods.

XNA Molecular Clamps Help Identify False-positive T790M Mutation

Eighty five percent of the lung cancer patients are non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Among this population, patients with exon 19 deletion and L858R mutations respond well to the first (such as erlotinib and gefitinib) and second generation (such as afatinib and dacomitinib) of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). However, all the respondents develop resistance after 9 to 14-month period and more than 50% of the resistance cases are due to the single point mutation at exon 20, T790M.
