Amivantamab plus lazertinib vs. osimertinib in first-line EGFR-mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer
Abstract
Introduction: The first-line treatment landscape for patients with NSCLC harboring sensitizing EGFR mutations is rapidly evolving. Initially, osimertinib was the one and only option over earlier generation EGFR inhibitors based on the positive PFS and OS results from the FLAURA study.
Areas covered: This paper reviews and compares the pivotal studies that led to the approval of combination treatment with a focus on the efficacy and safety of amivantamab plus lazertinib in the front-line setting. The literature reviewed in this paper primarily includes key studies published in well-established journals and oncological conferences, such as ASCO, ESMO, and NEJM, between 2018 and 2024.
Expert opinion: Recent advancements, including the results of FLAURA-2 and MARIPOSA, have introduced combination therapies that demonstrate enhanced efficacy.
Keywords: Epidermal growth factor receptor; FLAURA; FLAURA-2; MARIPOSA; front line therapy; tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
