    Abstract

    MET-Induced CD73 Restrains STING-Mediated Immunogenicity of EGFR-Mutant Lung Cancer

    Scientists discovered that MET amplification, the most common mechanism of resistance to third generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors, activated tumor cell STING, an emerging determinant of cancer immunogenicity.
