Abstract excerpt
While conventional organization of EGFR mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) includes classic lesions sensitive to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) and variants localized to the tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) in exons 18-21, next-generation sequencing (NGS) raises the prospect of identifying clinically relevant variants in extra-TKD regulatory regions. NSCLC patients at our institution who received tumor...
