| Abstract | The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between secondary mutations of c-KIT/PDGFR and acquired imatinib resistance or efficacy of sunitinib in Chinese patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Mutations of c-KIT (exons 9, 11, 13, 14, 17, and 18) and PDGFR (exons 12 and 18) in tumor samples of 50 patients were analyzed by direct sequencing. A total of 50 samples before imatinib and 52 samples after imatinib were collected. Among 52 samples after imatinib, 38 samples were imatinib resistant and 14 samples were imatinib sensitive. All patients before imatinib treatment had primary mutations of c-KIT exon 11 (n = 45) or exon 9 (n = 5), and no PDGFR mutations were found in these patients. After imatinib treatment, 25 of 38 (65.8 %) resistant tumors had secondary mutations in c-KIT exon 13 (n = 10), exon 14 (n = 1), exon 17 (n = 12) and exon 18 (n = 2), while no secondary mutations of c-KIT were found in 14 sensitive tumors (P < 0.001), indicating the close association of c-KIT secondary mutations with imatinib-acquired resistance. In our study, 19 patients received sunitinib treatment after the failure of imatinib, and it seemed that the median progression-free survival (7 vs. 19 months, P = 0.244) in patients with secondary mutations (n = 13) was lower than that in patients without secondary mutations (n = 6). Secondary mutations of c-KIT were significantly associated with acquired resistance to imatinib in Chinese GIST patients, and whether secondary mutations of c-KIT could influence the efficacy of sunitinib needed to be further investigated. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
