New Protocol: Datopotamab Deruxtecan with Osimertinib for EGFR-Mutated NSCLC

The combination of osimertinib and datopotamab deruxtecan showed clinical benefit in patients with EGFR-mutated advanced NSCLC who progressed on first-line osimertinib. The 6 mg/kg dose demonstrated higher efficacy but had more frequent adverse events, which could be managed with careful monitoring and dose adjustments. The study supports further investigation of the combination at the 6 mg/kg dose.
