[CDKN2A negative-Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck-afatinib]

Source:
Title:
Biomarkers predict enhanced clinical outcomes with afatinib versus methotrexate in patients with second-line recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck cancer
Excerpt:
Subgroups of HNSCC patients who may achieve increased benefit from afatinib were identified based on prespecified tumor biomarkers (p16-negative, EGFR-amplified, HER3-low, PTEN-high).
