True, for TKIs "pan" means point mutations with binding to active/inactive conformation...

I threw in the alternate pathway bit as I believe the future of TKI's as monotherapies will be dual or triple modes of action, similar to '113. I still think '113s moderate activity in EGFRm contributes to duration of response. RON was just a dual action suggestion for MET, could just as well be a key pathway like PI3K. Why the hesitation on MET? I see literature dating back to 80's establishing it as oncogenic driver, albeit in subsets of cancers.

Regarding GIST, HB at RBC conf. just stated a front or second line trial will be considered for Pona after ASCO data presentation. I just don't see how announcing a better c-Kit inhibitor in the same year as Pona begins pivotal trial for same indication will rebuild excitement for shareholders or new investors.

By the way I thought I would share my cheat sheet for possible candidates. See any missing?
