The introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors with activity against KIT/PDGFRA in both localized and advanced stages has remarkably improved the survival in a disease formerly deemed resistant to all systemic therapies. The Spanish Society of Medical Oncology (SEOM) guidelines provide a multidisciplinary and updated consensus for the diagnosis and treatment of GIST patients. We strongly encourage that the managing of these patients should be performed within multidisciplinary teams in reference centers. %K GIST %K Imatinib %K Sunitinib %K Regorafenib %K Stromal tumors %K Adjuvant imatinib %K Randomized-trial %K Phase-iii %K Follow-up %K Kinase %K Risk %K Multicenter %K Sensitivity %K Recurrence %~
