Optimizing the sequence of targeted therapy in EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma
EGFR-mutant lung cancers are highly sensitive to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs; erlotinib/gefitinib/afatinib), but tumors develop drug resistance within 9-16 months. Resistance to gefitinib/erlotinib commonly occurs via a second-site EGFR mutation, T790M. Two strategies to overcome T790M+ re...
