Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: T790M mutations inEGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) account for nearly 50% of acquired resistance mechanisms to EGFR-TKIs. Earlier studies suggested that tumor T790M could also be detected in TKI-naïve EGFR-mutated NSCLC. The aim of the study is to assess the prevalence and clinical significance of quantification of tumor pre-treatment T790M subclones. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We analyzed...
