Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The response rate for osimertinib is high among patients with untreated epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, there exist no biomarkers to predict the efficacy of the same. This study investigated whether BIM-γ mRNA expression in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) predicts poor outcomes for osimertinib treatment in patients with EGFR...
