The primary analysis of this trial showed that first-line treatment with osimertinib plus chemotherapy with a platinum-based agent and pemetrexed led to significantly longer progression-free survival than osimertinib monotherapy among patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)–mutated advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Results from the planned final analysis of overall survival are needed.
In this phase 3, international, open-label trial, we randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio patients with EGFR-mutated (exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation) advanced NSCLC who had not previously received treatment for advanced disease to receive either osimertinib (80 mg once daily) plus chemotherapy with pemetrexed (500 mg per square meter of body-surface area) and a platinum-based agent (cisplatin [75 mg per square meter] or carboplatin [pharmacologically guided dose]) or osimertinib monotherapy (80 mg once daily). The key secondary end point was overall survival. Research Summary Osimertinib plus Chemotherapy in EGFR-Mutated NSCLC
A total of 557 patients were randomly assigned to the osimertinib plus platinum–pemetrexed group (279 patients) or the osimertinib monotherapy group (278 patients). The median overall survival was 47.5 months in the osimertinib plus platinum–pemetrexed group and 37.6 months in the osimertinib monotherapy group (hazard ratio for death, 0.77; 95% confidence interval, 0.61 to 0.96; P=0.02). Grade 3 or higher adverse events of any cause were reported in 70% of the patients in the osimertinib plus platinum–pemetrexed group and in 34% of the patients in the osimertinib monotherapy group; adverse events leading to the discontinuation of osimertinib were reported in 12% and 7%, respectively.
Among patients with EGFR-mutated advanced NSCLC, first-line treatment with osimertinib plus platinum–pemetrexed led to significantly longer overall survival than osimertinib monotherapy and was associated with an increased risk of reversible adverse events of grade 3 or higher.

The median overall survival (OS) was 27·9 months with ivonescimab versus 23·7 months with tis.
Median progression-free survival was significantly longer with sac-TMT plus pembrolizumab than with pembrolizumab alone (not reached vs 5·7 m) this is regardless of PDL-1 expression (1-49 or >50).
Confirmed objective response was 76% the median duration of response was 15.2 months and the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 14.4 months Of the patients with brain mets 47% had a confirmed intracranial objective response Zongertinib showed sustained efficacy in previously untreated patients with advanced or metastatic HER2-mutant Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) with mostly low-grade toxicity.
45 patients with Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) who received the 600-mg dose, 36% had a partial response, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 8.3 months, estimated 12-month overall survival was 59% 21 patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma 24% had a response, the median PFS was 3.0 months and the median overall survival was 10.3 months.
Setidegrasib represents a meaningful advance in targeting KRAS G12D–mutant tumors, demonstrating a 36% response rate with median PFS exceeding 8 months in heavily pretreated NSCLC, and a 24% response rate with ~10 month median overall survival (OS) in third line pancreatic cancer, both notable signals in populations lacking approved targeted therapies.
