Afatinib for the first-line treatment of EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC in China: a review of clinical data.

Future oncology (London, England) - 1 Nov 2020

Tu Hai-Yan, Wu Yi-Long

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in the EGFR gene are particularly prevalent among Chinese patients with non-small-cell lung carcinoma. Six EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors are approved for the first-line treatment of EGFR mutation-positive non-small-cell lung carcinoma in China, which poses questions about which agent is most suitable for a particular patient. In this article, we review available clinical trial and real-world data with...
