Looking for Chimeras in NSCLC: Widen Therapeutic Options Targeting Oncogenic Fusions

Posted On 2021-01-07 13:21:34


A deeper understanding of innate/acquired resistance to the different TKIs already available for clinical use and the development of new effective treatment strategies to overcome it, represent a current area of intense investigation and has been extensively debated within different papers published in the series.
