Abstract excerpt
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway is widely activated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, only a subset of patients with NSCLC is sensitive to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), particularly those with activating EGFR mutations. The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is another key intracellular kinase that plays an important role in the onset and progression of many...
