Background: Several head-to-head meta-analyses have compared the efficacy and safety of different first-line treatments in patients with EGFR mutation-positive (M+) advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (nsq-NSCLC). However, there is a lack of comprehensive evaluation encompassing multiple treatment strategies. Our objective is to conduct a network meta-analysis that includes various treatment modalities, enabling both direct and indirect comparisons for a more thorough assessment.

Quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) modeling has emerged as a pivotal tool in the field of medicinal chemistry and drug design, offering a predictive framework for understanding the correlation between chemical structure and physicochemical properties. Topological indices are mathematical descriptors derived from the molecular graphs that capture structural features and connectivity, playing a crucial role in QSPR analysis by quantitatively relating chemical structures to their physicochemical properties and biological activities. Lung cancer is characterized by its aggressive nature and late-stage diagnosis, often limiting treatment options and significantly impacting patient survival rates.

Secondary endpoint included OS in patients with uncommon EGFR mutations. Exploratory aim focused on the impact of TKIs sequencing strategies.

The present study investigated the concomitant use of TCNs, TCSs, and DARDs with EGFR-TKIs in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and whether these affect patient outcomes.
Methods: We retrospectively collected data from all patients (n=1498) who had purchased for EGFR TKIs (erlotinib, gefitinib, and afatinib) in Finland between 2011-2020.
