Description
In a stage IV lung adenocarcinoma patient harboring EGFR exon 19 deletion, EGFR exon 19 deletion was associated with sensitivity to erlotinib monotherapy. Prior to identification of the EGFR exon 19 deletion, the patient was underwent complex treatments with standard chemotherapy and experienced disease progression; upon identification of EGFR exon 19 deletion and treatment with erlotinib, the patient achieved a clinical response.
