Patients with EGFR- mutant lung cancer have no approved targeted therapies after disease progression on first-line osimertinib, a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). Preclinical studies suggest that tumors with both EGFR -sensitizing alteration and acquired second-site EGFR resistance alterations after treatment with osimertinib retain sensitivity to second-generation EGFR TKIs. We hypothesized that dacomitinib, a pan-human epidermal growth factor receptor TKI, may be effective in this setting.
