Oncogenic driver mutations, treatment, and EGFR-TKI resistance in a Caucasian population with non-small cell lung cancer: survival in clinical practice
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC5652823
Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Predictive, Functional
Justification: Oncogenic: The text describes multiple mutations, including EGFR-T790M and BRAF V600E, as driver mutations associated with lung cancer, indicating their role in tumorigenesis. Predictive: The presence of the T790M mutation is linked to resistance to first and second-generation EGFR-TKIs and indicates a response to the third-generation EGFR-TKI osimertinib, suggesting its predictive value for treatment outcomes. Functional: The text mentions that the c.2527G>A; p.V843I mutation is biologically activating, indicating its functional role in the context of lung cancer, despite not conferring sensitivity to EGFR-TKIs.
