Table 3.
Prevalence of the Main EGFR Exon 19 Deletion Sizes in the COSMIC Database (among 1531 Cases with Exon 19 Deletion or Complex-Deletion), in our TMA (among the 31 Cases with Exon 19 Deletion), and in our Clinical Data at MSKCC during the Year 2008 (among the 107 Cases with Exon 19 Deletion)
| Size of EGFR exon 19 deletion | COSMIC* | MSKCC TMA | MSKCC clinical data |
|---|---|---|---|
| 9 bp | 6.6% | 12.9% | 2.8% |
| 12 bp | 0.2% | 3.2% | 2% |
| 15 bp | 75.5% | 64.5% | 65% |
| 18 bp | 15.2% | 9.7% | 29% |
| 24 bp | 1.4% | 9.7% | 1% |
Total = 98.9%. Some cases with very rare deletion sizes are not included.
