Mutations of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients predict the patients who will respond to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment. A recent study has suggested that 33% of NSCLC showed primary tumor/metastasis discordance of EGFR expression by immunohistochemistry analysis. We intended to find out whether the EGFR mutations of primary lung cancers are concordant to that of corresponding metastatic tumors.
