This study analyzed whether extended molecular profiling can predict the development of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene T790M mutation, which is the most frequent resistance alteration in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after treatment with the first‐/second‐generation (1G/2G) EGFR inhibitors (tyrosine kinase inhibitors [TKIs]), but only weakly associated with clinical characteristics. Here, EGFR is linked to non-small cell lung carcinoma.
