2 FIGURE 1 Histopathology of the patient’s poorly differentiated thymic carcinoma metastatic to the liver, submitted for clinical next-generation sequencing. A, Hematoxylin-eosin, 200×; (B) Cytokeratin 5/6 immunostain, 200×.

3 FIGURE 2 Molecular evidence for a single-codon KIT deletion. A, In-frame deletion of three nucleotides in exon 11 of KIT as visualized in the Integrative Genomics Viewer.24 B, Electropherogram from confirmatory Sanger sequencing, showing reference trace (top) and patient sample (bottom). C, Ribbon diagram of juxtamembrane and tyrosine kinase domains of KIT receptor, residues 565–933. The deleted residue (Asp579) and a bound imatinib molecule (STI-571) are shown as stick figures. Drawn from PDB entry 1T463 using the SwissPDB Viewer.25 Journal of Thoracic Oncology 2014 9, e12-e16DOI: ( /JTO.0b013e3182a7d22e) Copyright © 2014 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Terms and Conditions

4 FIGURE 3 Computed tomography of the patient’s thymic carcinoma. Mediastinal lesion with greatest diameter shown (A) before imatinib therapy, (B) 3 months postimatinib initiation, and (C) 12 months postimatinib initiation.
