Additional remarks In 2016 waren er 50 diagnoses van GIST stadium IV. Avapritinib wordt vanwege de studieresultaten enkel verder ontwikkeld voor GIST met een PDGFRa exon 18 mutatie. In ongeveer 6% van alle patiënten met GIST wordt deze mutatie aangetoond. Dit betekent dat het patiëntvolume in Nederland rond de 3 patiënten zal bedragen.
