Biological Markers for Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer Patient Selection for Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Therapy

The selection of patients for tumor-specific therapies using molecular/biological properties of the patient's tumor has been a long tradition in breast cancer (e.g., estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and HER-2/ neu ) but has not been widely accepted in lung cancer therapy selection ([1][1
