摘要: The discovery of activating epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations and the anaplastic lymphoma kinase gene rearrangement led to significantly improved outcomes with EGFR-tyrosine inhibitors (TKIs) crizotinib, respectively. These results have revolutionized treatment algorithms in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which are now, - at least part-, biomarker-guided. advantage this approach is obvious, allowing active treatments be offered a selected group patients who more likely benefit.
