Six resistant cell lines were established from five parental cell populations. PC-9R and HCC827R1 cells harbored EGFR T790M. HCC827R2 and HCC4011R cells displayed MET amplification (amp) and increased levels of MET protein (Figs. S1A and S2). HCC4006R cells showed features of EMT (Fig. S1A). 11-18R cells harbored an NRAS Q61K mutation. N/a, not applicable.

*PC-9R cells showed further EGFR amplification.

HCC827R1and HCC827R2 cells showed no further EGFR amplification.
