Overall Survival in EGFR-Mutant Advanced NSCLC Treated With First-Line Osimertinib: A Cohort Study Integrating Clinical and Biomarker Data in the United States

*September 2025* Abstract Introduction Patients with NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations (EGFRm) have high mortality. The third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor, osimertinib, is approved for first-line EGFRm NSCLC. We used longitudinal U.S. medical oncology databases to evaluate real-world overall survival (rwOS) and prognostic risk factor groups in advanced EGFRm NSCLC treated with…

Lazertinib for patients with NSCLC harboring uncommon EGFR mutations: A phase II multi-center trial

*September 2025* Abstract Introduction Uncommon EGFR mutations comprise 10% to 20% of all EGFR mutations in NSCLC and generally report reduced responsiveness to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Lazertinib, a third-generation EGFR-TKI, has found efficacy in common EGFR mutations, but its potential in uncommon mutations remains unexplored. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of lazertinib…
