Summary

Because ALK-positive lung cancer constitutes less than 5% of all lung cancers, it is critically important to select those patients who are more likely to have the ALK mutation. Clinical characteristics of patients with mutations in the target gene should also be known, so that the incidence of a given target mutation is established in a specific population. There is not incidence known in Mexican population, but it is believed it is greater.
