ABSTRACT: Introduction
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the most frequent cause of drug-related mortality from EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Yet, for patients with symptomatic osimertinib-induced ILD, the risk of recurrent ILD associated with EGFR TKI rechallenge, either with osimertinib or another TKI, such as erlotinib, is unclear.Methods
Retrospective study of 913 patients who received osimertinib treatment for EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC. Clinical characteristics, ILD treatment history, and subsequent anticancer therapy of patients with symptomatic osimertinib-induced ILD were collated. The primary end point was to compare the incidence of recurrent ILD with osimertinib versus erlotinib rechallenge.Results
Of 913 patients, 35 (3.8%) had symptomatic osi
