Neomorphic PDGFRA extracellular domain driver mutations are resistant to PDGFRA targeted therapies

Activation of PDGFRA by genomic aberrations contributes to tumor progression in several tumor types. Here, the authors perform functional characterization of 16 novel PDGFRA mutations identified from different tumor types and demonstrate that a neomorphic PDGFRA extracellular domain driver mutation...
