OBJECTIVES: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are first line treatment choices for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, responses vary among patients, therefore good biomarkers predicting better responses are required. EGFR mutations are detected in the blood from patients as circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA). Studies have shown that clearing...
