A Real-World Analysis of Patients with Untreated Metastatic Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR)-Mutated Lung Adenocarcinoma Receiving First-Line Erlotinib and Bevacizumab Combination Therapy.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The clinical features of patients with metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated lung adenocarcinoma receiving first-line therapy based on erlotinib combined with bevacizumab are unclear. Here, we sought to analyze the clinical features of this patient group.

Methods

Data were analyzed for the period from January 2015 to August 2019 for 49 patients with metastatic EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma receiving first-line erlotinib-and-bevacizumab combination therapy from the Linkou and Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospitals.

Results

The combination of erlotinib and bevacizumab showed an 83.7% objective response rate and a 97.9% disease control rate. The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 22.0 [95% CI (19.7-
