Abstract excerpt
The inevitable acquired resistance to osimertinib (AZD9291), an FDA-approved third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) for the treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring EGFR activating or T790M resistant mutations, limits its long-term clinical benefit.
