Abstract

This is a retrospective and prospective descriptive study to evaluate characteristics and survival outcomes in 69 NSCLC patients with ALK gene mutations from January 2019 to June 2022 at K Hospital and Hanoi Oncology Hospital. The results show that the average age is 52.6 ± 11.5 years common in female representing 52.2%; the majority of patients were non-smokers. Brain metastasis had a high rate of 36.2%. Adenocarcinoma is the main type with 89.9%. NGS test identified mutations in ALK gene accounted for 55.1%; RT-PCR accounted for 27.5%, immunohistopathology staining 13.0% and FISH 4.3%. 97.1% were performed on tissue samples. The mean progression-free survival was 19.5 ± 2.1 months. The mean overall survival was 23.5 ± 2.2 months.
