Spectrum of EGFR aberrations and potential clinical implications: insights from integrative pan-cancer analysis.

EGFR aberration type, frequency, distribution in functional domains, and expression vary from cancer to cancer. While mutations in the Pkinase_Tyr domain are more important for treatment selection, increased expression from amplification or deregulation affects more tumor types and leads to worse outcome, which calls for new treatment strategies for these EGFR-driven tumors.
