Successful rapid improvement of acute respiratory distress syndrome induced by EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer with almonertinib: a case report
This case represents the first documented successful treatment of ARDS induced by EGFR E19 mutated NSCLC using almonertinib. The favorable clinical response observed in this critically ill patient suggests that almonertinib may be a viable therapeutic option for managing severe complications in NSCLC. Further research is necessary to corroborate these findings and optimize dosage and toxicity management strategies for broader clinical application.
