Abstract excerpt
Third-generation inhibitors of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), best exemplified by osimertinib, have been developed to selectively target variants of EGFR bearing activating mutations and the mutation of gatekeeper T790 in patients with EGFR-mutated forms of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). While the application of third-generation inhibitors has represented an effective first- and second-line...
