Abstract excerpt
Patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring BIM deletion polymorphism (BIM deletion) have poor responses to EGFR TKI. Mechanistically, the BIM deletion induces preferential splicing of the non-functional exon 3-containing isoform over the functional exon 4-containing isoform, impairing TKI-induced, BIM-dependent apoptosis. Histone deacetylase...
