Association between the novel classification of lung adenocarcinoma subtypes and EGFR/KRAS mutation status. A systematic literature review and pooled-data analysis

Objectives: This study aims to determine the association of EGFR/KRAS mutation status with histological subtypes of lung adenocarcinoma (LAC) based on the IASLC/ATS/ERS classification. Methods: Pubmed and Cochrane databases were searched from January 2011 to June 2018 for studies that included patients with LAC who underwent surgical resection were classified according to the new IASLC/ATS/ERS classification. EGFR/KRAS status assessment was requireded. The primary outcome was determined by the odds ratio (OR) of the incidence of mutation status of certain of each histological subtype.
