Résumé

Non-small cell lung cancer is a very poor prognosis disease. Molecular analyses have highlighted several genetic alterations which may be targeted by specific therapies. In clinical practice, progression-free survival on EGFR TKI treatment is between 12 and 14 months. However, some patients progress rapidly in less than 6 months, while others remain free of progression for 16 months or even longer during EGFR TKI treatment.
