*October 2023* Osimertinib (Tagrisso) plus chemotherapy reduced the risk of central nervous system (CNS) disease progression or death vs osimertinib alone in patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR-positive non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who had brain metastases at baseline, according to data from the phase 3 FLAURA2 trial (NCT04035486) presented…

*October 2023* Take home message: In 1L setting, combo of Amivantamab (ami), an EGFR-MET bispecific antibody, and Lazertinib (laz), a CNS-penetrant 3rd-generation EGFR TKI, was evaluated against Osimertinib (osi) in the MARIPOSA study (NCT04487080) for treatment-naïve, EGFR-mutated locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC. After a median follow-up of 22.0 months, ami+laz…

*September 2023* "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." While there's some debate as to who actually said that off-quoted comment, there's less uncertainty about the kernel of truth it contains. When it comes to treatment for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small cell lung…

*October 2023* Findings from the FLAURA2 study, presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer 2023 World Conference on Lung Cancer, showed that chemotherapy added to osimertinib in the first-line setting significantly increased progression-free survival (PFS) among patients with EGFR-mutated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, without data…

*September 2023* Expert Stephen Liu, MD, joins the Oncology Brothers to share insight into updated data from the FLAURA2 trial of osimertinib with or without chemotherapy in patients with metastatic non–small cell lung cancer. Watch video here.

*September 2023* In patients with HER2–mutant non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated in a cohort of the phase 1a/b BEAMION Lung-1 trial (NCT04886804), treatment with zongertinib (BI 1810631) showed preliminary efficacy signals and acceptable, according to results of the the dose-escalation portion of the study.1 Treatment with zongertinib in the study…

*September 2023* SINGAPORE -- Treatment with the novel antibody-drug conjugate patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd) after progression with an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) and platinum-based chemotherapy resulted in "clinically meaningful and durable efficacy" in patients with advanced EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), according to the phase II HERTHENA-Lung01 trial. Among the…
