    A Phase 1 study of gefitinib combined with durvalumab in EGFR TKI-naive patients with EGFR mutation-positive locally advanced/metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer

    EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) induce cytolysis and release of tumour proteins, which can stimulate antigen-specific T cells. The safety and efficacy of durvalumab and gefitinib in combination for TKI-...

    Predictive factors for a long-term response duration in non-squamous cell lung cancer patients treated with pemetrexed

    Pemetrexed is widely used for the treatment of advanced non-squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, factors that can predict the benefits of pemetrexed therapy have not yet been defined.

    Activation of the AXL kinase causes resistance to EGFR-targeted therapy in lung cancer

    Trever Bivona and colleagues identify the upregulation of the AXL kinase in human non–small cell lung cancer with acquired resistance to erlotinib. Inhibition of AXL restores sensitivity to erlotinib in in vitro ...
