Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are prerequisites for the targeted therapy with anti-EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in non-small-cell lung carcinomas (NSCLCs). In patients with advanced-stage NSCLC, sometimes cytological specimens, including those from fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and pleural effusion, are the only materials for mutation analysis. The purpose of this...
