Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The majority of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring activating epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations respond well to osimertinib (AZD9291), a third-generation, mutation-selective EGFR inhibitor. The current study focuses on determining whether targeting MEK/ERK signaling prevents or delays the development of acquired resistance to osimertinib. METHODS: Drug effects...
