Excerpt:
PEAC belongs to the group of non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and is defined as having a more than 50% intestinal differentiation component. We report a postoperative (T4N2M0 stage IIIb) PEAC patient with EGFR L858R + A871G combined mutation. Following surgery, the patient underwent treatment with the first-generation EGFR-TKI, gefitinib, and achieved an impressive 5-year progression-free survival (PFS).
