Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Osimertinib is a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that potently and selectively inhibits EGFR activating and EGFR T790M resistance mutations. Osimertinib was found to be more effective than first-generation EGFR-TKIs in patients with previously untreated advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring EGFR-positive mutations in a prior...
