Summary

This study looks at whether adding chemotherapy to the targeted drug osimertinib works better than osimertinib alone for people with advanced lung cancer. It includes 80 patients whose cancer still shows a specific genetic change after three weeks of osimertinib. The goal is to see if the combination can delay cancer growth and improve survival.
