However, these patients inevitably come cross acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs. The transformation of lung adenocarcinoma to small cell lung cancer (SCLC) following treatment with EGFR-TKIs is rare, which leads to resistance to EGFR-TKIs %K Non-small cell lung cancer %K Small cell lung cancer %K transformation %K EGFR mutation %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5927699/
