The impact of tumor size change after target therapy on survival: analysis of patients enrolled onto three clinical trials of advanced NSCLC from one institution.

abstract：Purpose:Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with EGFR mutation are suffering from a high incidence of brain metastasis (BM). It is still controversial whether cranial radiotherapy could be delayed when the EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) used as first-line therapy for EGFR-positive patients with BM. This...
