PURPOSE: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) might be predictive for clinical response to EGFR inhibitor treatment. However, retrospective analyses of EGFR mutations in clinical trials have shown inconclusive results and the effect of EGFR sequencing in NSCLC is still controversial. Because the vast majority of EGFR mutations described have not been functionally...
