By conducting the study on 109 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients at the Nghe An Oncology Hospital, we found that EGFR gene mutation is a cause of NSCLC. The average age of patients is 63.8 ± 10.6. 96.33% of all the patients have Adenocarcinoma. Using Scorpion ARMS technique for EGFR mutation identification, we found the rate of patients carrying the gene mutation was 40.37%. 55.96% of the patients are male (27.87% of those have gene mutation), 44.04% are female (56.25% of those have gene mutation). In all patients with gene mutations, 54.55% of patients carry LREA and L747-P753 delinsS mutation at exon 19. The rate of patients with the L858R gene mutation at exon 21 is 29.55%; the rate of double mutation at exon 19 and 20, 18 and 20, 18 and 21 is 9.09%. 15.91% of patients have targeted-drug-resistant gene mutation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
