pubmed:abstractText |
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) gefitinib and erlotinib are gaining an increasing role in the management of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). There is mounting interest in the benefit of administering a second TKI after failure of the first TKI, especially in Asian patients, in whom they are expected to be more efficacious.
