We tested the activity of avapritinib, a potent and highly selective inhibitor of mutated KIT and PDGFRA, in three patient-derived xenograft (PDX) GIST models carrying different <i>KIT</i> mutations, with differential sensitivity to standard TKI.<b>Experimental Design:</b> NMRI <i>nu/nu</i> mice (<i>n</i> = 93) were transplanted with human GIST xenografts with <i>KIT</i> exon 11+17 (UZLX-GIST9 <i>

Our results suggest that KIT/PDGFRA mutation is a very common early event in GIST development, that tumour size does not reliably predict the presence of mutation, and that one or more subsequent mutations are required for clinical manifestation.
