Abstract
Lung cancer is the most common malignant neoplasm and ranks first in the structure of cancer mortality. Lung cancer has long been thought to be a smoker’s disease and largely preventable by limiting tobacco use, but recent studies have shown an alarming increase in the incidence of the disease among non-smokers of both sexes. Personalized medicine, including careful molecular genetic testing, optimizes treatment for each patient and improves their quality of life during therapy.
The subject of this article is a specific clinical case of the effective use of Osimertinib, a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), which has been widely used as first-line therapy in patients with metastatic EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and currently shows excellent results in the adjuvant mode. The aim of the work is to analyze the effectiveness of the use of the third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) in lung adenocarcinoma using an example from clinical practice. During the discussion of the specifics of treatment of a patient with NSCLC, the results of laboratory tests, data from various diagnostic and treatment methods are used.
