ABSTRACT: Background
Lung adenocarcinoma is a common disease with a high mortality rate. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are found in adenocarcinomas, and oral EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) show good responses. EGFR-TKI therapy eventually results in resistance, with the most common being T790M. T790M is also a biomarker for predicting resistance to first- and second-generation EGFR-TKIs and is sensitive to osimertinib. The prognosis was better for patients with acquired T790M who were treated with osimertinib than for those treated with chemotherapy. Therefore, T790M mutation is important for deciding further treatment and prognosis. Previous studies based on small sample sizes have reported very different T790 mutation rates. We conducted a meta-analys
