Acquired Concurrent EGFR T790M and Driver Gene Resistance From EGFR-TKIs Hampered Osimertinib Efficacy in Advanced Lung Adenocarcinoma: Case Reports.

ABSTRACT: The acquired resistance of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) is inevitable and heterogeneous. The strategies to overcome acquired resistance are significant. For patients with secondary T790M-positive after early generation EGFR-TKIs, osimertinib is the standard second-line therapy. In patients resistant to prior early generation EGFR-TKIs, the acquired T790M mutation overlaps with other driver gene resistance, such as HER2-and MET amplification, accounting for 4-8%. The efficacy of osimertinib is unclear in patients with concurrent multiple driver gene resistance. We here report a patient who acquired EGFR T790M, STRN-ALK fusion, and EGFR amplification after gefitinib progression and subsequent MET amplification acquired from osimertinib. The other pa
