TY - JOUR AU - Prabhakar, Charles N. PY - 2015 TI - Epidermal growth factor receptor in non-small cell lung cancer JF - Translational Lung Cancer Research; Vol 4, No 2 (April 19, 2015): Translational Lung Cancer Research (Molecular Genetics of Lung Cancer)1 Y2 - 2015 KW - N2 - Following the identification of a group of patients in the initial tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) trials for lung cancer, there has been detailed focus on which patients may benefit from inhibitor therapy. This article reviews the background, genetics and prevalence of epidermal growth factor mutations in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Additionally, the prevalence in unselected patients is compared against various other reviews. UR - https://tlcr.amegroups.org/article/view/3745
