Abstract excerpt
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation is brain metastasis (BM)-prone. We determined the impact of this hallmark, along with EGFR subtype and generation of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment, on patients' outcome. 553 metastatic EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients received front-line EGFR-TKI treatment. Progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and...
