Background   MET  exon 14 skipping mutation ( MET ex14) is observed in ~3% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cases and has been shown to be an independent poor prognostic factor associated with shorter overall disease-specific survival. Broad molecular testing can identify this biomarker in patients with advanced NSCLC (aNSCLC) and allow patients to be matched with the appropriate targeted therapy. This study examines biomarker testing patterns and clinical outcomes of chemotherapy and immuno-oncology (IO) monotherapy in aNSCLC patients with  MET ex14.    Methods  A descriptive retrospective study was conducted using the Flatiron Health–Foundation Medicine Inc. (FMI) clinico-genomic database. Patients with  MET ex14 aNSCLC treated with systemic therapies were included in the biomarker testing analysis. The duration from specimen collection to reported results was assessed for PD-L1– and  MET ex14-tested patients. Clinical outcomes were assessed in patients treated with chemotherapy or IO monotherapy. First-line (1L) and second-line (2L) real-world progression-free survival (rw-PFS) were estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis.    Results  Of 91  MET ex14 patients eligible for the biomarker testing analysis, 77% and 60% received PD-L1 and FMI next-generation sequencing (NGS) testing within 3 months post aNSCLC diagnosis. Of those assessed for both PD-L1 and  MET ex14 (n=9), the median duration between specimen collection and reporting was 1 week shorter for PD-L1 than for FMI NGS. Median 1L rw-PFS was 5.7 months (95% CI, 4.6-7.1) and 2.4 months (95% CI, 1.4-3.2) in patients receiving 1L chemotherapy (n=59) and IO monotherapy (n=18), with 3-month 1L rw-PFS rates of 78% and 33%. Median 2L rw-PFS was 3.5 months (95% CI, 1.9-11.1) and 4.7 months (95% CI, 2.8-12.9) in patients receiving 2L chemotherapy (n=16) and IO monotherapy (n=23), with 3-month 2L rw-PFS rates of 54% and 67%.    Conclusions  The median time from biopsy to test results appears 1 week shorter for PD-L1 than for FMI NGS. Chemotherapy and IO monotherapy were the most common regimens utilized but with limited PFS.
