Abstract excerpt
BRAF mutations are rare driver mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), accounting for 1%-2% of the driver mutations, and the mutation spectrum has a wide range in contrast to other tumors. While V600E is a dominant mutation in melanoma, more than half of the mutations in NSCLCs are non-V...
