Gefitinib and erlotinib are the first-line tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. However, co-administration of either drug with proton pump inhibitors (PPI) or histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H2RA) may reduce TKI’s bioavailability. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effects of these drug–drug interactions. We surveyed nationwide population-based databases between Jan 1, 2010, and Dec 30, 2018. Newly diagnosed patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma who received first-line gefitinib or erlotinib were identified. Effects on overall survival (OS) and time to next treatment (TTNT) association between PPIs or H2RAs and co-administrated gefitinib or erlotinib were evaluated. PPIs or H2RAs users were defined if the period overlapped with TKIs by ≥ 20%. A total of 4340 gefitinib and 1635 erlotinib users were included. PPI group had the shortest median OS and TTNT compared to the H2RA and non-user groups (in gefitinib cohort: OS: 14.35 vs. 17.67 vs. 21.87 months;  P  &lt; 0.0001, TTNT: 8.47 vs. 10.78 vs. 10.33 months;  P  &lt; 0.0001); (in erlotinib cohort: OS: 16.97 vs. 20.07 vs. 23.92 months;  P  &lt; 0.0001, TTNT: 9.06 vs. 11.85 vs. 10.90 months;  P  = 0.0808). Compared with the non-user group, the adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) of the PPI group in the gefitinib was 1.58 on OS (95% CI 1.42–1.76), 1.37 on TTNT (95% CI 1.24–1.52); in the erlotinib was 1.54 on OS (95% CI 1.30–1.82) and 1.19 on TTNT (95% CI 1.01–1.39). Concurrent use of PPIs with first-line gefitinib or erlotinib therapy was associated with a worse OS and TTNT in patients with lung adenocarcinoma harboring  EGFR  mutations.
