Recruitment details

A Real world, non-interventional study based on existing data from medical records or electronic health records. The study aimed to collect more information on the benefit of individual Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) treatment for the uncommon mutations and the overall benefit for the sequential EGFR TKI treatment with afatinib and osimertinib for the common EGFR mutations on patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

Pre-assignment details

Every patient who fulfilled inclusion and exclusion criteria and agreed to participate in the study was selected until the required sample size was achieved. Deceased and untraceable patients were enrolled whenever possible and discussed with the local authorities.
