Non-small cell lung cancers with Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 or 2 (IDH1/2) mutations

Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1/2) are important metabolic enzymes that convert isocitrate to α-ketoglutarate. IDH1/2 mutations are associated with the development of multiple malignancies. In this study, we examine the prevalence and features of non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) with IDH1/2 mutations. From May 2013 – March 2017, 800 lung cancer samples were successfully sequenced for somatic mutations on the Ion Torrent PGM with the 50 gene AmpliSeq Cancer Hotspot Panel v2 on the Ion Torrent PGM (318 chip).
