Osimertinib is the best treatment choice for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose disease progresses on a first- or second-generation EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor due to acquired T790M mutation. On the other hand, there is a lack of therapeutic strategies with proven efficacy at the time of progression on osimertinib. If not administered previously, platinum-based chemotherapy can provide some clinical benefit, while immunotherapy does not seem to work in this setting. Here, we report on a unique case of response to osimertinib rechallenge after intervening chemotherapy in an EGFR T790M-positive NSCLC patient pretreated with the sequence erlotinib-osimertinib.

Background: Osimertinib is the standard first-line treatment for advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated NSCLC. However, treatment resistance is inevitable and increased c-Met protein expression correlates with resistance. Telisotuzumab vedotin (Teliso-V) is an antibody-drug conjugate that targets c-Met protein overexpression.

Resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) is the main cause of mortality in lung cancer. This study aimed to investigate the roles of neuropilin 1 (NRP1) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NRP1 expression was assessed in tumor tissues from patients with osimertinib-resistant (OR) NSCLC and osimertinib-responsive NSCLC as well as in patients with paracancerous NSCLC tissues who did not undergo radiotherapy or chemotherapy.

Osimertinib (AZD9291) is a widely used tyrosine kinase inhibitor for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer patients with activating EGFR mutations. However, the correlation between dose and efficacy has been debated for several years. For this reason, there is a need for standardized methods for routine analysis, clinical studies on pharmacokinetics and dose-response relationships, and greater understanding of preanalytical conditions, such as sample storage stability.

The prevailing belief is that third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) (TGET) outperform first-generation EGFR-TKIs (FGET) in managing advanced-stage EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, this standpoint lacks substantiation in evidence-based medicine. Therefore, this meta-analysis was conducted to compare the efficacy and adverse effects (AEs) of these two categories.

Extracellular vesicle (EV) monitoring can complement clinical assessment of cancer response. In this study, patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing osimertinib, alectinib, pembrolizumab or platinum-based chemotherapy ± pembrolizumab were enrolled. EVs were characterized using Bradford assay to quantify the circulating cell-free EV protein content (cfEV), and dynamic light scattering to assess Rayleigh ratio excess at 90°, z-averaged hydrodynamic diameter and polydispersity index.
