NCT ID NCT03918304

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at how well the drug Tagrisso (osimertinib) works and how safe it is for people with a certain type of lung cancer (non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR mutations) in everyday medical practice. Over 900 patients in Korea were observed while taking Tagrisso as their only treatment. The goal was to track side effects and see how long the drug kept the cancer from growing.
