Abstract

The ErbB family blockers, afatinib and dacomitinib, and the third-generation EGFR TKI, osimertinib, confer significant clinical benefit versus first-generation EGFR TKIs (erlotinib and gefitinib) in patients with EGFR mutation-positive (EGFRm+) NSCLC. However, no prospective data exist directly comparing afatinib, dacomitinib and osimertinib. In terms of overall survival (OS), outcomes are highly dependent on the availability and implementation of subsequent therapy following acquired resistance to first-line therapy.
