(A) Tumor progression in an index patient with adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) was associated with the sequential identification of multiple mutations in the Notch1 pathway. The peripheral blood sample showed wild-type sequence at all NOTCH1 amplicons/codons covered by the assay. (B) Tumor from index patient with NOTCH1-mutant ACC was strongly positive for Notch1 intracellular domain by immunohistochemistry. (C) Patient with NOTCH1-mutant ACC achieved a partial response with a 38% reduction in the target lesion upon treatment with two doses of the anti-Notch1 monoclonal antibody brontictuzumab. CAP, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and cisplatin; Carbo, carboplatin; ISIS482464, STAT3 inhibitor administered under a phase I clinical trial protocol; VAF, variant allele frequency. (†) No tumor available for genotyping. (‡) Genotyping performed in cell-free DNA.
