Hatim Husain, MD, discusses how acquired resistance to kinase inhibitors in EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) poses a significant challenge in long-term treatment efficacy, necessitating ongoing research into novel therapeutic strategies and combination approaches to overcome resistance mechanisms.
Panelist discusses how agents such as osimertinib, initially developed to target resistance mechanisms in refractory disease, are now being used proactively to prevent drivers of disease progression.
Panelist discusses how an early analysis of the mechanisms of acquired resistance to first-line treatment with amivantamab plus lazertinib vs osimertinib was presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology Congress 2024, shedding light on potential strategies for managing EGFR-mutated and MET-amplified non–small cell lung cancer.
Panelist discusses how the second interim overall survival data from MARIPOSA-2, presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology Congress 2024, affect treatment strategies for patients with non–small cell lung cancer that has developed resistance to osimertinib.
Hatim Husain, MD, discusses how the implementation of proactive prophylaxis strategies for patients taking amivantamab, including prophylactic antibiotics, good skin hygiene, and insights from the phase 2 COCOON study, can help manage potential adverse effects and improve treatment outcomes.
Panelist discusses how the future treatment landscape for EGFR-mutant advanced non–small cell lung cancer is evolving to address current unmet needs and offers clinical pearls to community oncologists for optimizing patient care in this rapidly changing field.
