Conversion from Positive to Negative EGFR Mutation due to Clonal Selection during Long-Term Treatment with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors: A Case Report

A 77-year-old woman with postoperative recurrent non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma, which exhibited an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) L858R mutation, was treated with gefitinib and erlotinib. Seven years after the start of treatment, the patient experienced a recurrence of malignant pleura...
