Detecting EGFR mutations and ALK/ROS1 rearrangements in non‐small cell lung cancer using malignant pleural effusion samples

Background The study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of using malignant pleural effusion (MPE) as a substitute specimen for genetic testing and to determine the significance of genetic profiling of MPE tumor cells to monitor non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression and therapeutic re...
