Abstract

Background: The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) bring the best result to EGFR-mutation positive non-small cell lung cancer patients, but most lead to drug resistance. These acquired resistances are associated with T790M mutation or Met amplification, HGF expression. To assess whether affects overall survival in these patients, we did a retrospective study comparing survival outcomes in 2nd EGFR-TKI treated patients with controls without 2nd EGFR-TKI screened during the same time period.
