Supplementary Material for: Osimertinib in the Treatment of EGFR Mutation-Positive Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Meta-Analysis

Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for about 85% of generally reported lung cancer patients. Objectives: This is a systematic review of the clinical efficacy and safety of osimertinib in treating epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-positive advanced NSCLC. Methods: A network search was completed for clinical research literature (from inception of each database to May 30, 2020) on osimertinib for EGFR mutation-positive advanced NSCLC. Strict inclusion and exclusion criteria were formulated to screen the literature. After data extraction, RevMan 5.3 software was utilized for quality evaluation and meta-analysis. The primary endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and adverse events of grades 3 and 4. Results: Finally, 6 eligible articles and a total of 1,848 patients containing 1,123 in experimental groups and 725 in control groups were included. Meta-analysis indicated that ORR (odds ratio [OR] = 3.40, 95% CI 1.64∼7.01, p = 0.0009), DCR (OR = 4.36, 95% CI 3.09∼6.15, p p p Conclusion: Osimertinib is currently an appreciably effective and well-tolerated therapeutic avenue for EGFR mutation-positive advanced NSCLC.
