Clinical takeaways: 

  • The ADAURA trial demonstrated statistically and clinically significant overall survival benefit with osimertinib in patients with resected EGFRm stage IB-IIIA NSCLC

  • Adjuvant osimertinib reduced the risk of death by approximately half compared to placebo in these patients

  • The effect was consistent irrespective of stage of disease and prior adjuvant chemotherapy

  • Adjuvant osimertinib should be the standard of care for patients with resected EGFRm stage IB-IIIA NSCLC
