Abstract excerpt
A greater understanding of non-small-cell lung cancer at a molecular level has led to the identification of an increasing number of driver mutations. Extensive research of the KRAS gene as well as specific mutations has established its role in tumorigenesis. Nevertheless, the role of KRAS oncogene in non-small-cell lung cancer remains unclear. Recent studies indicated that mutant KRAS could be predictive of lack...
