Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Although tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) significantly improve survival outcomes in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), tumor clonal evolution under drug pressure inevitably leads to acquired resistance. DNA damage response (DDR) mutations lead to elevated genome instability, but the frequency and impact of DDR gene/pathway mutations on...
