We prospectively addressed whether EGFR and KRAS mutations, EML4-ALK, ROS1 and RET rearrangements, or wild-type (WT), affects radiosurgery outcomes and overall survival (OS) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases (BM). Of 326 patients with BM treated in 2012-2014 with Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS), 112 NSCLC patients received GKRS as their initial intracranial treatment. OS,...
