Tagrisso demonstrated 5.5-year mDFS in the adjuvant treatment of patients with EGFR-mutated lung cancer
Susan Galbraith, Executive Vice President, Oncology R&D, AstraZeneca said: “It is remarkable that just two years ago, patients with early-stage EGFR-mutated lung cancer had no targeted treatment options after surgery. Now, around the world, patients have access to Tagrisso and its added benefit of protecting the brain and spinal cord. We look forward to mature overall survival results for ADAURA in due time, but our research and commitment to early-stage lung cancer patients continue through our broader Tagrisso programme, which is investigating a prolonged duration of post-surgery treatment and the potential role of adjuvant Tagrisso in even earlier stages of disease.”
