Abstract:Rationale:
Many studies have shown that first- and second-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors are less effective in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion (ex20ins) mutations. The efficacy of third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors is still under investigation. Although new targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitors and monoclonal antibody-based agents have made significant advances in the treatment of… 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.
