Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To investigate the clinical utility of targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) for predicting the responsiveness to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy, we compared the efficacy with conventional sequencing in never-smokers with lung adenocarcinoma (NSLAs). PATIENTS AND METHODS: We obtained DNA from 48 NSLAs who received gefitinib or erlotinib for their...
