Epidermal growth factor receptor-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer: A primer on contemporary management

2019-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) constitutes 85% of patients diagnosed with lung cancer. In metastatic cases, its treatment classically consists of systemic cytotoxic chemotherapy, which resulted in a median overall survival of 7.9 months.
