Efficacy and safety of dacomitinib in treatment-naïve patients with advanced NSCLC harboring uncommon EGFR mutation: an ambispective cohort study.
Article in BMC cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAbout 10% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are harbored as uncommon mutations. This study aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of dacomitinib, a second-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKIs), in treating uncommon EGFR-mutated advanced NSCLC.
methodsTreatment-naïve advanced NSCLC patients treated with dacomitinib at Hunan Cancer Hospital with uncommon EGFR mutations were evaluated. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary end points included overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR) and safety.
resultBetween December 2019 and December 2021, a total of 16 patients was included. Median PFS was 14.0 (95% CI 4.32-23.7) months, and median OS was not reached. ORR was 68.8% (95% CI 41.3 to 89.0%) and DCR was 93.8% (95%CI 69.8 to 99.8%), including three achieving complete remission (CR) and eight achieving partial remission (PR). Median PFS for patients with brain metastasis was 9.0 (95%CI 6.9 to 11.1) months. Intracranial ORR was 100%, including 2 CR and 4 PR. Major treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) included rash (87.5%), paronychia (62.5%), oral ulcers (50.0%), and diarrhea (50.0%), none of which were ≥ grade 3 TRAEs.
conclusionsDacomitinib showed good activity and manageable toxicity in NSCLC patients with uncommon EGFR mutations.
