Diego A. Díaz García: First RCT in NSCLC with uncommon EGFR mutations – Afatinib VS Chemotherapy
Diego A. Díaz García, Medical Oncologist, CEO and Founder at CánCare, shared a post on X about recent paper Satoru Miura and colleagues authored:
“First RCT in NSCLC with uncommon EGFR mutations: afatinib doubled PFS vs chemo (10.6 vs 5.7 mo).
ACHILLES/TORG1834 Should it be the new 1st-line standard?
Or could 3rd-gen TKIs novel combos do better?”
