Resistance to First-line Osimertinib in EGFR-mutant NSCLC: Tissue is the Issue
Overview
Authors

Matched pre-/posttreatment tissue biopsies from patients with -mutant non-small cell lung cancer demonstrate that histologic transformations, including both small-cell carcinoma and squamous transformation, are unexpectedly common among patients progressing on first-line osimertinib. The study highlights the key role of tissue testing and underscores the need for innovative therapeutic approaches to prevent, rather than treat, resistance..
