Sequential treatment in advanced non-small cell lung cancer harboring EGFR mutations.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are standard treatments for advanced EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Osimertinib is an effective therapy for NSCLC patients with acquired resistance due to T790M mutation after first- and second-generation EGFR-TKI treatment. This study aimed to analyze the clinical outcomes of sequential therapy following first-line EGFR-TKIs and the predictive factors of an acquired T790M mutation.

Methods

Between January 2014 and December 2018, data from 2190 advanced NSCLC patients with common EGFR mutations (exon 19 deletion and L858R) receiving first- and second-generation EGFR-TKIs in Linkou, Kaohsiung, Chiayi and Keelung Chang Gung Memorial Hospitals were retrospectively ret
