This is supported by recent evidence which demonstrates that presence of oncogenic driver mutations in NSCLC, such as EGFR, ALK, ROS1, RET fusions and C-MET exon 14 skipping is associated with lower mutational burden (Mohamed E. Salem, ASCO presentation 2017, http://abstracts.asco.org/199/AbstView_199_184601.html). This evidence concerns the gene MET and non-small cell lung carcinoma.
