Description
In an NSCLC patient initially with L858R mutation, pemetrexed and cisplatin combination treatment was followed by erlotinib treatment. A slow progression developed which was found to be positive for L858R as well as T790M mutation which confers resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Due to slow tumor growth erlotinib was continued despite T790M, with re-addition of premetrexed, and this reduced tumor size and resulted in stable disease.
