It accepts original papers on clinical and experimental research that are pertinent in the biomedical sciences. The Journal is published 4 issues/year (i.e., Mar, Jun, Sep, and Dec). Targeted therapy with epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR TKI) is a standard treatment for advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutated non-small cell lung cancer. There is information evidence demonstrating the efficacy of progression-free survival in either both first line treatment or and second-line treatment. However, there is only limited information on the efficacy of treatment and dose modification on the occurrence of medication side effects, especially in late-line treatment patients, and most is limited to case reports rather than clinical studies. In this study we describe the use of gefi tinib in late-line treatment where the gefi tinib dosage was adjusted reduced to 250 mg every 2 days aft er patients had developed hepatitis due to gefitinib. There was a 21 week progression free interval which included a 13 week progression-free interval of following dose modification. 2019-08-21T09:18:26Z 2019-08-21T09:18:26Z 2019 Chiang Mai Medical Journal 58, 2 (Apr-June 2019), 99-104 0125-5983 https://www.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/CMMJ-MedCMJ/article/view/184817/130063 http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/66337 Eng Faculty of Medicine, Chiang Mai University
