We describe a clinically-compatible, single-tube PCR method for sensitive screening  of samples with mutations in EGFR exons 18-21 that determine the response of cancer patients to anti-EGFR therapies. The method generates unique fluorescent signatures that are characteristic of the amplified gene sequences.
