The novel phosphoinositide 3‐kinase–mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor, BEZ235, circumvents erlotinib resistance of epidermal growth factor receptor mutant lung cancer cells triggered by hepatocyte growth factor

Acquired resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor–tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR–TKIs), such as gefitinib and erlotinib, is a critical problem in the management of patients with EGFR mutant lung cancer. Several mechanisms have been reported involved in this acquired resistance, including hep...
