Lung carcinoma with EGFR mutation is a molecular subtype of lung carcinoma. Morphologically, these tumours are typically adenocarcinomas.
General
- Testing indicated in non-small cell carcinoma, adenosquamous carcinoma of the lung, as well as lung adenocarcinoma.
- Testing done together with ALK.
- EGRF mutation excludes ALK rearrangement.[1]
