Introduction: Osimertinib is a central nervous system (CNS)-active, third generation, irreversible, epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) that potently and selectively inhibits EGFR-TKI sensitizing and EGFR T790M resistance mutations, with demonstrated efficacy in EGFR-mutated (EGFRm) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We present the rationale and design for TARGET (NCT05526755), which will evaluate the efficacy and safety of 5 years of adjuvant osimertinib in patients with completely resected EGFRm stage II to IIIB NSCLC.

Materials And Methods: TARGET is a phase II, multinational, open-label, single-arm study.

Article Synopsis
  • The ASTRIS study analyzed the effects of osimertinib, a treatment for advanced EGFR T790M non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), in 3,014 patients who had previously received EGFR-TKI therapy.
  • The main outcomes were overall survival (OS), with a median of 22.8 months, and progression-free survival (PFS) at 11.1 months, indicating positive treatment effectiveness.
  • Results also showed better OS in patients with good performance status and those without brain metastases, with no new safety concerns reported throughout the study.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for the majority of all lung cancer diagnoses, and approximately 35% of patients with NSCLC are diagnosed at an early stage (I-IIIA). This study aimed to describe epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) testing, patient characteristics, and overall survival (OS) among patients with early-stage NSCLC in Denmark. Patients with early-stage NSCLC registered in the Danish Lung Cancer Registry in 2013-2018 were followed through 2019.
