Background: Most advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients received targeted therapies of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors. However, few studies reported the relationships between adverse events (AEs) and psychological distress.
Objectives: The aims of this study were to (1) examine the differences in the incidence of AEs, fear of progression (FoP), anxiety, and depression among 3 generations of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (first, gefitinib and erlotinib; second, afatinib; third, osimertinib) and (2) examine the difference in levels of FoP, anxiety, and depression between the presence and absence of AEs in NSCLC patients.
