Abstract excerpt

STUDY OBJECTIVES: The prevalence of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in gefitinib-naive lung cancer patients is higher in adenocarcinomas, in women, and in Japanese. To further investigate the prevalence of EGFR mutations in relation to ethnic and geographic factors, we evaluated EGFR mutations in a series of Taiwanese patients with primary lung adenocarcinomas who had never been treated with...
