a

Tumor type, clinical significance, and evidence level of the draggable genes with therapeutic impact were cited from the clinical practice guidance for next‐generation sequencing in cancer diagnosis and treatment (Edition 1.0). 21

b

Mutation frequency of all genes but one was cited from a review article reported by Valle et al. 22 Mutation frequency of NTRK1 was quoted from a study reported by Ross et al. 49
