Lung adenocarcinoma in a patient with a cis EGFR L858R-K860I doublet mutation identified using NGS-based profiling test: Negative diagnosis on initial companion test and successful treatment with osimertinib.

Abstract excerpt

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors are used as first-line treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring driver mutations in EGFR, ALK, ROS1, and BRAF. Currently, standard molecular testing approaches help identify single genes for such targetable driver mutations in NSCLC; however, next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based genetic profiling provides a more comprehensive approach and is hence strongly...
