摘要: The aim of the study was to analyze frequency epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in Brazilian non-small cell lung cancer patients and correlate these with response benefit platinum-based chemotherapy (NSCLC). Our cohort consisted prospective NSCLCs who received (platinum derivates plus paclitaxel) at [UNICAMP], Brazil. EGFR exons 18–21 were analyzed tumor-derived DNA. Fifty included (25 adenocarcinoma). identified 6/50 (12 %) 6/25 (24 adenocarcinomas; representing a mostly self-reported White (82.0 southeastern population NSCLCs. Patients harboring exon 19 deletions or 21 L858R mutation found have higher chance platinum-paclitaxel (OR 9.67 [95 % CI 1.03–90.41], p = 0.047). We report activating typical NSCLC, which are similar that other countries Western European ethnicity. seem be predictive platinum-paclitaxel, additional studies needed confirm refute this relationship.
