Abstract:
The diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is getting more and more standardized. In the last two decades, due to the elucidation of molecular mechanism of tumorigenesis, as well as the effectiveness of tyrosine kinase inhibitors, GIST has become well-known as one of the most classical models of targeted therapy on solid tumors in the precision medicine era. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) issued the latest version of clinical practice guideline on soft tissue sarcoma in February 2020. Compared with previous versions, the new version of the guideline highlighted the treatment recommendations of avapritinib, which further promoted the precise targeted treatment of GIST.
