AstraZeneca Reports P-III Trial (FLAURA2) Results of Tagrisso (osimertinib) for the Treatment of EGFR-Mutated Advanced Lung Cancer
Shots:
- The P-III trial evaluating Tagrisso (80mg, qd) + CT (pemetrexed (500mg/m2) & cisplatin (75mg/m2) or carboplatin (AUC5)) vs Tagrisso alone in 586 patients with LA (Stage IIIB-IIIC) or metastatic (Stage IV) EGFRm NSCLC across 150+ centres in 20+ countries, incl. in the US, EU, South America & Asia
- The results showed an improvement in PFS over Tagrisso alone. The safety results & discontinuation rates due to AEs were consistent with the established profiles of each therapy, OS data were immature & will be formally assessed at a subsequent analysis
