We reported a novel EGFR exon 21 indel mutation in a lung adenocarcinoma patient. Dacomitinib showed efficacy in the treatment of a patient with this mutation, suggesting that its efficacy in patients with uncommon mutations should be explored further. The next-generation sequencing is recommended as a guiding tool for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
