Trancriptome- based identification of circular RNA (circRNA) and its functional role in osimertinib-resistant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells

Recent GLOBOCAN 2022 report identifies lung cancer as the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide, with 85% of cases being non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients with classical EGFR mutations (E19 Delins/L858R) respond to first- and second-generation EGFR-TKIs, while those with the seconda...
