Abstract:liquid biopsy samples using targeted next-generation sequencing between 2014 and 2017 for EGFR exon20 mutations as well as other concurrent EGFR mutations in the same patient. Result: A total of 442 patients (3.4%) were found harboring 493 different EGFR exon20 variations, among which 49 patients (11%) carried more than one exon20 mutations. The frequencies of the most prevalent alterations were summarized in Table 1. 18% of these mutations have concurrent TKI-sensitive mutations L858R or exon19 deletion. In-f… Show more
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.
