Summary

This study tests whether combining two targeted drugs, osimertinib and gefitinib, is safe and feasible for people with advanced EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer. About 48 participants who have not received prior EGFR inhibitor treatment will take both drugs for up to 6 months. The main goal is to see how many can stay on the combination therapy without stopping due to side effects.
