Abstract:
Epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) is one of the most important targeted drugs for lung cancer patients carrying EGFR sensitive mutations.However,almost all patients that are effective to this treatment will eventually develop secondary resistance to EGFR-TKI.The most accepted mechanisms of resistance mainly include T790M mutation,MET amplification,PIK3CA mutation,down-regulation of PTEN expression and activation of Fas-transcription factor-κB.Recent years,many new drugs are developed to overcome this resistance.Although most of drugs are in the stages of cell or animal experiment,some new drugs get positive clinical results.
