EGFR C797S mutation mediates resistance to third-generation inhibitors in T790M-positive non-small cell lung cancer

T790M mutation is the most common mechanism for resistance to first- and second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Several third-generation EGFR mutant selective TKIs are being explored to conquer this resistance. AZD9291 (osimertinib, tagrisso)...
