Clinical efficacy evaluation of tyrosine kinase inhibitors for non-adenocarcinoma lung cancer patients harboring EGFR-sensitizing mutations

Abstract: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) as a standard therapy have been used in EGFR-mutated adenocarcinoma of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in recent years. But in current randomized prospective clinical trials, due to few cases of non-adenocarcinoma patients having been found, the efficacy of TKIs for EGFR-mutated non-adenocarcinoma and the relationship with clinicopathological characteristics remained debatable. The results of retrospective studies showed that… Show more

“…The inhibition of EGFR activation by Ang-(1–7) reported in this study is in agreement with our previous data showing that pretreatment with Ang-(1–7) prevents hyperglycemia-induced EGFR transactivation-dependent vascular complications [43]. A growing body of evidence shows that EGFR-dependent signaling plays a significant role in asthma [5961]. We and others have also recently reported in animal models, and in clinical studies, that increased EGFR activity is associated with the asthma phenotype.…”

“…However, in patients with non-AC NSCLCs, the value of detecting EGFR mutations remains unclear. 20 In patients with ASC, genetic mutations are rarely evaluated, and research on the efficacy of EGFR-TKIs in ASC patients with EGFR mutations is limited. This is partly due to its rarity and the unclear value of assessing oncogenic mutations in ASCs.…”
