Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: We investigated the incidence of concomitant epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangements in Chinese patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and assessed responses to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) and crizotinib in such tumors. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We screened 977 consecutive patients with NSCLC for the presence of...
