“…Continuation of osimertinib plus chemotherapy regimen may rescue these patients who have received sequential EGFR-TKI therapy owing to poor response to chemotherapy. Although the phase 3 IMPRESS study demonstrated that continuation of gefitinib plus chemotherapy did not provide a better OS compared with chemotherapy alone (HR: 1.44, 95% CI: 1.07-1.94, P=0.016, median OS: 13.4 vs. 19.5 months), it cannot be determined whether the same results can be inferred using irreversible EGFR-TKIs in terms of improved central nervous system efficiency [18].…”

“…AEs are shown in (31). A meta-analysis showed that, in advanced NSCLC, the median survival time was 13.26, 13.52, and 12.58 months for gefitinib, erlotinib and icotinib, respectively (25).…”
