Rechallenge with EGFR-TKI after failure of immunotherapy is considered an effective treatment for advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients with EGFR exon 19 deletion: a case report
Abstract:In advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation, epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) have an excellent and long-lasting therapeutic response; however, virtually all patients eventually develop drug resistance and experience disease progression. The use of immunotherapy after EGFR-TKIs may be a successful therapeutic option for individuals who are resistant to them. It is still unclear if EGFR-TKIs can be administered again after… 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.
