- Description
- In a phase 3 clinical trial of East Asian advanced pulmonary adenocarcinoma patients, a subset of patients with EGFR mutations (n=261) treated with gefitinib were associated with improved response (HR:0.48, 95% CI:0.36-0.64, P<0.001), compared to carboplatin plus paclitaxel treatment. The frequency of mutation in exon 19 deletion and L858R was 53.6% (140/261) and 42.5% (111/261), respectively.
