EGFR Pathway Mutations in Lung Cancer Patient Tumors and Blood


OBJECTIVES:

- Examine the mutational status of the EGFR pathway in tumor and blood samples from
patients with lung cancer.

- Correlate the EGFR pathway mutations in these samples with clinical outcomes of these
patients.

OUTLINE: Archived tumor tissue and blood samples are analyzed via PCR to detect EGFR pathway
mutations in DNA.
