Abstract
The use of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) is the first line treatment for EGFR-mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but drug resistance will be acquired within 1-2 years, and the following treatment efficacy is poor. The invention of programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors has dramatically changed the situation of tumor treatment. PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors are less effective in patients with NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation. It is a challenge to make patients with EGFR-mutated advanced NSCLC benefit from anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy. In this paper, the research progress on the impact of EGFR mutation on the immune status of NSCLC and related clinical studies in recent 5 years are reviewed. .
