Pathological type, liver metastasis, brain metastasis, NSE, and CYFRA 21 - 1 were identified as independent risk factors for stage IV NSCLC patients treated with EGFR-TKIs, while chemotherapy and radiotherapy were determined to be independent protective factors. Taking icotinib or gefitinib, as opposed to osimertinib, was an independent risk factor for advanced NSCLC patients.

Our findings suggest that the combination of afatinib and bevacizumab may offer long-term clinical benefits for LUAC patients harboring the novel and rare EGFR Q787L mutation. This case highlights a potential therapeutic strategy warranting further investigation in clinical studies.

This study highlights the high prevalence and detrimental impact of muscle loss during EGFR-TKIs treatment.

Icotinib demonstrates good therapeutic effect and tolerable toxicity on the EGFR gene mutant NSCLC. There is a certain negative correlation between the plasma drug concentration of Icotinib and its efficacy, while there seems no significant correlation with safety.

Whether first-generation EGFR inhibitors (e.g. icotinib or gefitinib) can sustainably control EGFR-sensitive mutations/C797S NSCLC following third-generation EGFR inhibitor treatment remains insufficiently reported. Our case report discusses a female patient with advanced lung adenocarcinoma carrying an EGFR exon 19 E746_A750delELREA mutation who received almonertinib as first-line treatment and developed C797S resistance during therapy. The patient was subsequently treated with a double dose of icotinib for 8 months until disease progression occurred, along with the development of an EGFR exon 20 T790M point mutation and TP53 mutation. This case provides clinical evidence suggesting that first-generation EGFR-TKIs may be an effective treatment strategy for patients with acquired EGFR 19del/C797S resistance following EGFR TKI therapy.

The study encompassed the following 19 treatments: Chemotherapy; Afatinib; Afatinib + Cetuximab; Apatinib + Gefitinib; Befotertinib; Cetuximab + Chemotherapy; Erlotinib; Erlotinib + Bevacizumab; Erlotinib + Chemotherapy; Gefitinib; Gefitinib + Chemotherapy; Gefitinib + Olaparib; Icotinib; Icotinib + Chemotherapy; Lazertinib; Naquotinib; Osimertinib; Osimertinib + Bevacizumab; Osimertinib + Chemotherapy. However, due to the limitations in the number and quality of included studies, these conclusions await further validation through more high-quality research. https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?ID=CRD42024562981, identifier CRD42024562981.

A series of derivatives of Erlotinib and Icotinib were developed by incorporating a macrocyclic polyamine into a quinazoline scaffold to enhance their inhibitory activity against drug-resistant cells. Compound b demonstrated slightly improved inhibition activity against PC-9 Del19/T790M/C797S (IC50 = 496.3 nM). This could provide some insights for optimizing EGFR inhibitors, particularly in the context of EGFR triple mutants.

Erlotinib or gefitinib-treated patients had an overall survival trend that was superior to that of icotinib-treated patients. ASC harboring EGFR mutations can be treated with EGFR-TKI in a similar manner to Adenocarcinoma (ADC) harboring EGFR mutations. There is still a need for further investigation to identify the separate roles of ASC's two components in treating EGFR.

Dacomitinib is a potential treatment option for NSCLC patients with EGFR L718Q mutation after resistance to Osimertinib. Further research is needed to validate the efficacy of Dacomitinib in this context.

The patient was then treated with icotinib for 8 months until the disease progressed. Icotinib may be effective in patients with the EGFR 19del-C797S resistant mutation acquired after osimertinib treatment.

DCA demonstrated good clinical prediction effectiveness of the nomogram. Low T4-SMD is a prognostic risk factor for patients with advanced EGFR-positive NSCLC receiving icotinib therapy.

In first-generation EGFR-TKIs treatment, gefitinib showed favorable efficacy compared to icotinib and erlotinib, particularly in patients with EGFR L858R mutations...In third-line treatments, the combination of osimertinib and anlotinib demonstrated superior efficacy compared to other regimens. Glutamate ionotropic receptor NMDA type subunit 2A (GRIN2A) mutation was an independent risk indicator of shorter OS following third-line treatments. Comprehending the tumor evolution in NSCLC is advantageous for assessing the efficacy and prognosis at each stage of treatment, providing valuable insights to guide personalized treatment decisions for patients.

Our case indicated that the feasibility of neoadjuvant icotinib in EGFR-mutant lung adenosquamous carcinoma.

We reported a patient with lung adenocarcinoma who developed EGFR-T790M mutation after first-line treatment with icotinib and sarcoma transformation after second-line treatment with almonertinib. Sarcoma transformation can be one of the forms of drug resistance in patients with lung adenocarcinoma with EGFR-TKIs. The prognosis of patients with adenocarcinoma after transformation into sarcoma is poor.

As of August 23, 2023, the first generation EGFR-TKIs, gefitinib, icotinib, and erlotinib; the second generation EGFR-TKIs, afatinib and dacomitinib; and the third generation EGFR-TKIs, osimertinib, almonertinib, furmonertinib and befotertinib were all approved for marketing by China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). In addition, multiple domestic third-generation EGFR-TKIs are undergoing clinical trials, such as rezivertinib (BPI-7711), limertinib (ASK120067), and oritinib (SH-1028). Meanwhile, mobocertinib and sunvozertinib, which targets EGFR 20ins mutations, were also approved by NMPA. With the increasing variety of EGFR-TKIs approved for marketing subsequently, it brings confusion to clinicians when choosing specific medications, and there is an urgent need to develop relevant treatment guidelines. Hence, the Medical Oncology Branch of China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care and the Chinese Association for Clinical Oncologists convened experts to integrate the research results of various EGFR-TKIs, and proposed the "China clinical practice guideline for epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors in stage Ⅳ non-small cell lung cancer (version 2023)", to provide reference for better clinical practice.

The proposed method was used in 100 patients with non-small cell lung cancer for monitoring plasma concentration of the mentioned EGFR-TKIs. The trough concentrations of ICO were distributed between 226.42 ng/mL and 3853.36 ng/mL, peak concentrations were between 609.20 ng/mL and 2191.54 ng/mL. The trough concentrations of OSI were distributed between 110.48 ng/mL and 1183.13 ng/mL. The trough concentrations of GEF were distributed between 117.71 ng/mL and 582.74 ng/mL, while DeGEF was distributed from 76.21 ng/mL to 1939.83 ng/mL with two less than 20 ng/mL. The results of therapeutic drug monitoring aimed to investigate exposure-efficacy/toxicity relationship and improve the efficacy and safety of targeted therapies.

Icotinib combined with radiotherapy can significantly short-term and long-term efficacy of NSCLC patients with brain metastases but not increase adverse reactions.

Two-year adjuvant icotinib was shown to significantly improve DFS and provide an OS benefit in EGFR-mutant, stage II-IIIA lung adenocarcinoma patients compared with 1-year treatment in this exploratory phase II study.

The results were similar when erlotinib or icotinib was compared with gefitinib. Progression-free survival and overall survival for afatinib and dacomitinib were longer than for gefitinib, with small significant differences...Osimertinib is the preferred first-line treatment in patients with advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC. First- and second-generation TKIs are still considered good options, especially in low-income countries that cannot cover the costs of osimertinib.

Although the efficacy of imatinib in the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia in the United States in 2001 was the main driver of protein kinase inhibitor drug discovery, this was preceded by the approval of fasudil (a ROCK antagonist) in Japan in 1995 for the treatment of cerebral vasospasm...One-third of the 21 internationally approved drugs are not compliant with Lipinski's rule of five for orally bioavailable drugs. The rule of five relies on four parameters including molecular weight, number of hydrogen bond donors and acceptors, and the Log of the partition coefficient.

With the extension of treatment duration, there is an observed augmentation in the number of pts experiencing sustained tumor shrinkage and favorable safety of Pimicotinib with no apparent hepatotoxicity. Current data confers durable therapeutic benefits in TGCT pts, suggesting that prolonged exposure may represent an optimal treatment approach. In addition, a separate cohort with prior anti-CSF-1/CSF-1R therapies is underway to assess the safety and antitumor activity.

Anlotinib combined with icotinib was effective and well-tolerated as a first-line treatment option for EGFR mutation-positive advanced NSCLC with or without concurrent mutations.

Adjuvant EGFR-TKIs could significantly improve DFS among patients with stage IB lung adenocarcinoma compared with CO, with a safe and tolerable profile.

Among these 59 patients, eight (13.6%) received EGFR TKIs (e.g., afatinib, icotinib, and osimertinib), two patients (3.4%) received IO therapy, eleven (18.6%) initiated platinum-based chemotherapy, fourteen (23.7%) received docetaxel, ten (16.9%) bevacizumab, five (8.5%) paclitaxel, and ten (16.9%) other chemotherapy in the 2nd LOT. The prognosis of advanced NSCLC patients with EGFR ex20ins in China was sub-optimal. The results of this study suggested there is an unmet need of novel therapy for these patients in China.Demographics, treatment patterns, and clinical outcomes of advanced NSCLC patients in ChinaTotal (N=116)Site, %Shanghai60.3Beijing39.7Age, yearMean56.2Median57.6Range27.8 - 76.1Insurance type, %Urban medical59.5Rural medical9.5Smoking status, %Current18.1Previous13.8Non-smoker62.1Cancer stage, %IIIb3.5IVa53.5IVb37.9Not specified5.2Tested for PD-L1, %Positive5.7Negative3.5Unknown74.1Patients with LOTs, %1st LOT1002nd LOT57.8Post-platinum 2nd LOT50.91st LOT (N=116), %Platinum-based chemotherapy85.3EGFR TKI2.6Immunotherapy0.9Other11.22nd LOT (N=59), %Platinum-based chemotherapy18.6EGFR TKI13.6Immunotherapy3.4Other64.4PFS of 1st LOTPFS, median (95% CI)6.2 (5.6, 8.0)Censored, %37.9PFS of post-platinum 2nd LOTPFS, median (95% CI)4.2 (2.7, 5.1)Censored, %25.4Confirmed ORR, %1st LOT14.8Post-platinum 2nd LOT10.0
