Does anyone know anything about EGFR as it relates to therapy for
Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer?  There's an oral abstract from a recent
conference that describes 100% response to therapy with the EGFR exon
19
deletion in NSCLC and 75% response with the L858R mutation. 
Ultimately,
I wish to learn if there's anyone offering testing.
