Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The T790M gatekeeper mutation in the EGFR is acquired by some EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) as they become resistant to selective tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). As third-generation EGFR TKIs that overcome T790M-associated resistance become available, noninvasive approaches to T790M detection will become critical to guide management. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: As part of a...
