SCLC transformation in EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma is one of the major phenotypic changes that is observed during the resistance to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. However, the mechanism of this transformation remains unclear. In this study, we found a small de novo SCLC component in surgically resected specimens of EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma before EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment. By using laser microdissection and whole-exome sequencing, <i>TP53</i> loss of heterozygosity ...[more]
