EGFR con T790M+ a la progresión

T790M

In 50-60% of AR cases

Substitution of threonine to methionine at amino-acid position 790 in exon 20 of EGFR gene

enhances the ATP affinity of the kinase domain of the EGFR-mutant receptor restoring its

affinity for ATP to that of wt

Minor clones with T790M+ with low allelic frequencies identified in treatment-naïve tumors

Pressure from TKIs may select for enriched growth of these T790M clones, leading to AR
