Osimertinib, a third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has been authorized for use in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of neoadjuvant osimertinib in individuals with resectable locally advanced NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation.Ten centers located in mainland China took part in a single-arm, real-world, multicenter retrospective study (registration number: ChiCTR2100049954). Enrollment included individuals with lung adenocarcinoma who had EGFR mutations. Following the administration of osimertinib, the patients underwent a surgical procedure for resection. The main endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR). The subsequent endpoint analyzed was the joint assessment of overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS).From July 31, 2018 to April 28, 2023, a total of 38 individuals were involved and received neoadjuvant osimertinib treatment. The ORR was 60.5% (23/38). Thirty-eight patients underwent surgery, and 36 (94.7%) underwent successful R0 resection. Out of 38 patients, sixteen (42.1%) experienced adverse events (AEs) due to treatment in the neoadjuvant phase, with none of them reaching grade 3. Skin irritation [14 (36.8%)], stomach upset [5 (13.2%)], mouth sores [1 (2.6%)] and increased liver enzyme levels [1 (2.6%)] were the common AEs of treatment. The follow-up period lasted an average of 24.9 months. The 1-year OS rate is 94.2%, while the 2-year OS rate is 89.2%. The 1-year DFS rate is 87.9%, and the 2-year DFS rate remains at 87.9%.In the actual clinical setting, osimertinib displays encouraging possibilities as a neoadjuvant therapy for individuals with operable EGFR-mutated NSCLC, exhibiting adequate efficacy and an acceptable safety record. The phase III clinical trial of NeoADAURA is expected to provide further efficacy and safety results.2024 AME Publishing Company. All rights reserved.
