Total regression of brain metastases in non-small cell lung cancer patients harboring EGFR mutations treated with gefitinib without radiotherapy: two case reports
BACKGROUND: Gefitinib is an epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Clinical trials have reported its effectiveness in the treatment of brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer by overcoming the blood–brain barrier. Gefitinib is generally regarded as a relatively safe age...
