Osimertinib vs. Afatinib in 1L therapy of atypical EGFR-mutated metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (mNSCLC): A multi-institution, real-world survival analysis

Patients with G719X alterations experienced longer TTD and OS with afatinib than osimertinib. In contrast, patients with L861Q alterations had longer TTD with osimertinib. In AM + CM pts, TTD and OS with osimertinib were longer than afatinib, suggesting that classical mutations may be driving the outcomes. Atypical EGFR mutations may warrant distinct treatment recommendations based on the specific mutation(s) identified, but more studies are needed.

Abstract

Patients with G719X alterations experienced longer TTD and OS with afatinib than osimertinib. In contrast, patients with L861Q alterations had longer TTD with osimertinib. In AM + CM pts, TTD and OS with osimertinib were longer than afatinib, suggesting that classical mutations may be driving the outcomes. Atypical EGFR mutations may warrant distinct treatment recommendations based on the specific mutation(s) identified, but more studies are needed.
