Materials &amp; methods: In this retrospective, observational, multicenter study, patients (n = 204) had T790M-positive disease following first-line afatinib and started osimertinib treatment [&gt;/=]10 months prior to data entry. Primary outcome was time on treatment. Results: Overall median time on treatment was 27.6 months (90% CI: 25.9-31.3), 30.3 months (90% CI: 27.6-44.5) in Del19-positive patients and 46.7 months (90% CI: 26.8-not reached) in Asians. The 2-year overall survival was 78.9%. Conclusion: In real-world clinical practice, sequential afatinib and osimertinib facilitates prolonged, chemotherapy-free treatment in patients with T790M acquired resistance, and is a potentially attractive strategy, especially for Del19-positive tumors.</dc:description><dc:publisher>Future Medicine Ltd</dc:publisher><dc:date>2018</dc:date><dc:date>2020-11-09 11:24:15</dc:date><dc:type>Neznano</dc:type><dc:identifier>12623</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>UDK: 616-006</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>ISSN pri članku: 1744-8301</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>DOI: 10.2217/fon-2018-0711</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>COBISS_ID: 2048432753</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>OceCobissID: 521824025</dc:identifier><dc:language>sl</dc:language><dc:rights>2018 Maximilian Hochmair</dc:rights></metadata>
