主 题:Cellular-mesenchymal epithelial transition factor receptor Savolitinib Meningeal carcinomatosis Gastric adenocarcinoma Case report
摘 要:BACKGROUND Brain metastases(BM)are very rare in gastric adenocarcinoma(GaC),and patients with BMs have a higher mortality rate due to stronger tumor ***,its pathogenesis remains *** testing revealed cellular-mesenchymal epithelial transition factor receptor(MET)***,treatment with savolitinib,a small molecule inhibitor of c-Met,was *** SUMMARY A 66-year-old woman was diagnosed with advanced GaC 6 months prior to presentation due to back *** and meningeal metastases were observed during candonilimab combined with oxaliplatin and capecitabine *** patient experienced frequent generalized seizures and persistent drowsiness in the emergency *** testing of cerebrospinal fluid and peripheral blood revealed increased MET *** discussing treatment options with the patient,savolitinib tablets were *** a month of treatment,the intracranial lesions shrank *** BM is very rare in advanced GaC,especially in meningeal cancer,that is characterized by rapid disease *** are very few effective treatment options available;however,technological breakthroughs in genomics have provided a basis for personalized ***,MET amplification may be a key driver of BM in gastric cancer;however,this conclusion requires further investigation.
