A non-smoker woman with advanced lung adenocarcinoma was referred to us. The Oncomine Dx target test (ODxTT), a next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based hot spots panel test, did not detect any driver mutations, so we treated her with chemo-immunotherapy. After second-line chemotherapy, we performed FoundationOne CDx, a NGS-based comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) test, and identified a rare variant of epidermal growth factor receptor exon 19 deletion that had not been covered by ODxTT. This case highlights the importance of considering the indication of a CGP test for patients who are likely to harbor driver mutations, even when ODxTT fails to detect any.
