Despite their rarity, it is clear from previous studies that RTK fusions, such as RET rearrangements, are actionable resistance mechanisms to EGFR-TKIs. We aim to increase awareness of this emerging paradigm by comprehen
[Paragraph-level] PMCID: PMC9441062 Section: RESULTS PassageIndex: 14
Evidence Type(s): Predictive, Oncogenic
Justification: Predictive: The passage discusses how the variants T790M, C797S/G, and L718V/Q are associated with resistance mechanisms to EGFR-TKIs, indicating their role in treatment response. Oncogenic: The variants mentioned are described as second-site mutations that contribute to resistance in the context of tumor development and progression in NSCLC.
