In resectable EGFRm NSCLC
INITIAL DFS ANALYSIS: In resected stage IB-IIIA EGFRm NSCLC, median DFS was not reached
(95% CI: NE, NE) for TAGRISSO vs 27.5 months (95% CI: 22.0, 35.0) for placebo; HR=0.20
(95% CI: 0.15, 0.27); P<0.0001; N=682.1*
The only adjuvant EGFR TKI proven to significantly extend overall survival after resection
reduced risk of death
vs placebo in patients with resectable stage IB-IIIA EGFRm NSCLC1†‡
Median OS was not reached in either TAGRISSO or placebo arm
HR=0.49 (95% CI: 0.34, 0.70); P<0.0001; N=682
- In the overall population (stage IB-IIIA), the median follow-up time was 61.5 months in both treatment arms
ADAURA: 8-year exploratory OS analysis
The longest reported OS follow-up for targeted therapy in adjuvant NSCLC2§

8-year analysis:
reduced risk of death
vs placebo
HR=0.52 (95% CI: 0.39, 0.71); N=682||
- The 8-year analysis was exploratory and required additional follow-up from the planned analysis. Survival status was collected through additional patient consent or available medical records. This analysis was not powered to show statistical significance2¶
- Of the 558 patients that were alive at the final DCO (January 27, 2023), 77% (n=431) had additional survival data after the final OS analysis
- In the overall population (stage IB-IIIA), the median follow-up time was 93.3 months for TAGRISSO and 79.6 months for placebo2
*Secondary endpoint in the ADAURA initial analysis. Primary endpoint in the initial analysis at 2 years was DFS in patients with resected stage II-IIIA EGFRm NSCLC. Median DFS was not reached for TAGRISSO (95% CI: 38.8, NE) vs 19.6 months (95% CI: 16.6, 24.5) for placebo (HR=0.17 [95% CI: 0.12, 0.23]; P<0.0001).1,3
†OS was a secondary endpoint in ADAURA.1
‡5-year OS maturity was 18% (TAGRISSO 12%, placebo 24%).3
§Longest reported follow-up in a global phase III study.2
||8-year OS maturity was 26% (TAGRISSO 20%, placebo 31%).
¶Of n=297 patients on the TAGRISSO arm who were alive at the final planned OS analysis, 237 (80%) had additional survival data up until the May 4, 2026 DCO or from accessible records/information from last contact date, and 60 (20%) had no additional survival data available. Of n=261 patients on the placebo arm who were alive at the final planned OS analysis, 194 (74%) had additional survival data up until the May 4, 2026 DCO or from accessible records/information from last contact date, and 67 (26%) had no additional survival data available. If no known date of death was available, patients were censored at the last date they were known to be alive after the final planned OS DCO.2
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
- There are no contraindications for TAGRISSO
- TAGRISSO can cause severe and fatal interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis. ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 4% of the 1813 patients treated with TAGRISSO monotherapy who had not received recent definitive chemoradiation therapy (CRT); 0.4% of cases were fatal. For patients receiving TAGRISSO who have not received recent definitive platinum-based CRT, withhold TAGRISSO and promptly investigate for ILD in patients who present with worsening of respiratory symptoms which may be indicative of ILD (e.g., dyspnea, cough, and fever). Permanently discontinue TAGRISSO if ILD/pneumonitis is confirmed
- TAGRISSO can cause heart rate-corrected QT (QTc) interval prolongation. Of the 1813 TAGRISSO monotherapy-treated patients in clinical trials, 1.1% were found to have a QTc >500 msec, and 4.3% of patients had an increase from baseline QTc >60 msec. Conduct periodic monitoring with ECGs and electrolytes in patients with congenital long QTc syndrome, congestive heart failure, electrolyte abnormalities, or those who are taking medications known to prolong the QTc interval. Permanently discontinue TAGRISSO in patients who develop QTc interval prolongation with signs/symptoms of life-threatening arrhythmia
- TAGRISSO can cause cardiomyopathy, including cardiac failure, chronic cardiac failure, congestive heart failure, pulmonary edema or decreased ejection fraction. Cardiomyopathy occurred in 3.8% of the 1813 TAGRISSO-treated patients; 0.1% of cardiomyopathy cases were fatal. In the ADAURA study, 1.5% (5/325) of TAGRISSO-treated patients experienced LVEF decreases ≥10% from baseline and a drop to <50%. For patients receiving TAGRISSO monotherapy, conduct cardiac monitoring in patients with cardiac risk factors, including assessment of LVEF at baseline and during treatment. Assess LVEF in patients who develop relevant cardiac signs or symptoms during treatment. For symptomatic congestive heart failure, permanently discontinue TAGRISSO
- Keratitis was reported in 0.6% of 1813 patients treated with TAGRISSO monotherapy in clinical trials. Promptly refer patients with signs and symptoms suggestive of keratitis (such as eye inflammation, lacrimation, light sensitivity, blurred vision, eye pain and/or red eye) to an ophthalmologist
- Postmarketing cases consistent with erythema multiforme major (EMM), Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) have been reported in patients receiving TAGRISSO. Withhold TAGRISSO if EMM, SJS, or TEN is suspected and permanently discontinue if confirmed
- Postmarketing cases of cutaneous vasculitis including leukocytoclastic vasculitis, urticarial vasculitis, and IgA vasculitis have been reported in patients receiving TAGRISSO. Withhold TAGRISSO if cutaneous vasculitis is suspected, evaluate for systemic involvement, and consider dermatology consultation. If no other etiology can be identified, consider permanent discontinuation of TAGRISSO based on severity
- Aplastic anemia has been reported in patients treated with TAGRISSO in clinical trials (0.06% of 1813) and postmarketing. Some cases had a fatal outcome. Inform patients of the signs and symptoms of aplastic anemia including but not limited to, new or persistent fevers, bruising, bleeding, and pallor. If aplastic anemia is suspected, withhold TAGRISSO and obtain a hematology consultation. If aplastic anemia is confirmed, permanently discontinue TAGRISSO. Perform complete blood count with differential before starting TAGRISSO, periodically throughout treatment, and more frequently if indicated
- Verify pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating TAGRISSO. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TAGRISSO and for 6 weeks after the last dose. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception for 4 months after the last dose
- Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed infants from TAGRISSO, women should not breastfeed during treatment with TAGRISSO and for 2 weeks after the last dose
- Most common (≥20%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, in patients who received TAGRISSO monotherapy were leukopenia, lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia, diarrhea, rash, musculoskeletal pain, neutropenia, nail toxicity, dry skin, stomatitis, and fatigue
INDICATION
- TAGRISSO is indicated as adjuvant therapy after tumor resection in adult patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 19 deletions or exon 21 L858R mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test

- TAGRISSO can cause severe and fatal interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis. ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 4% of the 1813 patients treated with TAGRISSO monotherapy who had not received recent definitive chemoradiation therapy; 0.4% of cases were fatal
- In the FLAURA2 study, ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 3.3% of the 276 patients who received TAGRISSO in combination with pemetrexed and platinum-based chemotherapy; 0.4% of cases were fatal
- In the LAURA study, following definitive platinum-based CRT, ILD/pneumonitis including radiation pneumonitis, occurred in 80 of the 143 patients (56%) who received TAGRISSO monotherapy and 28 of the 73 patients (38%) who received placebo. There was one fatal case (0.7%), 3.5% Grade 3, 34% Grade 2, and 18% Grade 1 adverse reactions of ILD/pneumonitis in TAGRISSO-treated patients. For TAGRISSO-treated patients, ILD/pneumonitis led to permanent discontinuation of TAGRISSO in 7% of patients and dosage interruptions of TAGRISSO in 35% of patients. Among the 46 patients who were rechallenged with TAGRISSO, 11% had recurrence of ILD/pneumonitis. In the 80 TAGRISSO-treated patients, ILD/pneumonitis resolved in 40%, resolved with sequelae in 1.3%, were resolving in 16%, did not resolve in 41%, and resulted in death in 1.3%
- TAGRISSO can cause heart rate-corrected QT (QTc) interval prolongation.

‡Hüyük et al (2023) conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis extracting DFS and OS data from 15 studies with a total of 1893 patients with stage I-IIIA NSCLC, with and without occult lymph node micrometastasis/isolated tumor cells, after surgical resection. Meta-analyses for OS and DFS were performed on 14 and 8 studies, respectively. Survival probabilities for OS and DFS at different timepoints were extracted from published survival curves. OS probabilities were reported at every 6 months after surgery until 5-year follow-up for both micrometastasis and no micrometastasis. DFS was reported at every 3 months after surgery for the first 2-year follow-up, and at every 6 months after 2 years of follow-up until 5 years of follow-up.4
§According to the American Joint Committee on Cancer, micrometastases are defined as clusters of tumor cells measuring between 0.2 mm and 2.0 mm in greatest diameter, and ITCs are defined as single tumor cells or small clusters of cells, smaller than 0.2 mm in greatest diameter.6
*Chouaid et al (2018) conducted a retrospective observational study in 831 patients with complete resection of stage IB-IIIA NSCLC with no information on EGFRm status. Of the 831 patients, 200 experienced metastatic recurrence during the observed study follow-up period.2
†Based on a single-center retrospective review of 1640 patients who had undergone resection for stage I-IIIA NSCLC from a prospectively maintained database to compare patterns of recurrence. 181 of 346 patients with stage IIIA NSCLC (52%) and 257 of 1294 patients with stage I-II NSCLC (20%) developed recurrences.

- There are no contraindications for TAGRISSO
- TAGRISSO can cause severe and fatal interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis. ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 4% of the 1813 patients treated with TAGRISSO monotherapy who had not received recent definitive chemoradiation therapy; 0.4% of cases were fatal
- In the FLAURA2 study, ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 3.3% of the 276 patients who received TAGRISSO in combination with pemetrexed and platinum-based chemotherapy; 0.4% of cases were fatal
- In the LAURA study, following definitive platinum-based CRT, ILD/pneumonitis including radiation pneumonitis, occurred in 80 of the 143 patients (56%) who received TAGRISSO monotherapy and 28 of the 73 patients (38%) who received placebo. There was one fatal case (0.7%), 3.5% Grade 3, 34% Grade 2, and 18% Grade 1 adverse reactions of ILD/pneumonitis in TAGRISSO-treated patients. For TAGRISSO-treated patients, ILD/pneumonitis led to permanent discontinuation of TAGRISSO in 7% of patients and dosage interruptions of TAGRISSO in 35% of patients. Among the 46 patients who were rechallenged with TAGRISSO, 11% had recurrence of ILD/pneumonitis. In the 80 TAGRISSO-treated patients, ILD/pneumonitis resolved in 40%, resolved with sequelae in 1.3%, were resolving in 16%, did not resolve in 41%, and resulted in death in 1.3%
- TAGRISSO can cause heart rate-corrected QT (QTc) interval prolongation. Of the 1813 TAGRISSO monotherapy-treated patients in clinical trials, 1.1% were found to have a QTc >500 msec, and 4.3% of patients had an increase from baseline QTc >60 msec. Of the 276 patients treated with TAGRISSO in combination with pemetrexed and platinum-based chemotherapy in the FLAURA2 study, 1.8% were found to have a QTc >500 msec, and 10.5% of patients had an increase from baseline QTc >60 msec. No QTc-related arrhythmias were reported. Clinical trials of TAGRISSO did not enroll patients with baseline QTc of >470 msec. Conduct periodic monitoring with ECGs and electrolytes in patients with congenital long QTc syndrome, congestive heart failure, electrolyte abnormalities, or those who are taking medications known to prolong the QTc interval. Permanently discontinue TAGRISSO in patients who develop QTc interval prolongation with signs/symptoms of life-threatening arrhythmia
- TAGRISSO can cause cardiomyopathy, including cardiac failure, chronic cardiac failure, congestive heart failure, pulmonary edema or decreased ejection fraction. Cardiomyopathy occurred in 3.8% of the 1813 TAGRISSO-treated patients; 0.1% of cardiomyopathy cases were fatal. In the FLAURA2 study, cardiomyopathy occurred in 9% of the 276 patients who received TAGRISSO in combination with pemetrexed and platinum-based chemotherapy; 1.1% of cardiomyopathy cases were fatal. A decline in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥10% from baseline and to <50% LVEF occurred in 4.2% of 1557 patients who had baseline and at least one follow-up LVEF assessment. In the ADAURA study, 1.5% (5/325) of TAGRISSO-treated patients experienced LVEF decreases ≥10% from baseline and a drop to <50%. In the LAURA study, following platinum-based CRT, 3% (4/135) of TAGRISSO-treated patients and no placebo-treated patients experienced LVEF decreases ≥10% and a drop to <50%. In the FLAURA2 study, 8% (21/262) of patients treated with TAGRISSO in combination with pemetrexed and platinum-based chemotherapy, who had baseline and at least one follow-up LVEF assessment, experienced LVEF decreases ≥10% and a drop to <50%. For patients receiving TAGRISSO monotherapy, conduct cardiac monitoring in patients with cardiac risk factors, including assessment of LVEF at baseline and during treatment. For patients receiving TAGRISSO in combination with pemetrexed and platinum-based chemotherapy, conduct cardiac monitoring in all patients, including assessment of LVEF at baseline and during treatment. Assess LVEF in patients who develop relevant cardiac signs or symptoms during treatment. For symptomatic congestive heart failure, permanently discontinue TAGRISSO
- Keratitis was reported in 0.6% of 1813 patients treated with TAGRISSO monotherapy in clinical trials. Promptly refer patients with signs and symptoms suggestive of keratitis (such as eye inflammation, lacrimation, light sensitivity, blurred vision, eye pain and/or red eye) to an ophthalmologist
- Postmarketing cases consistent with erythema multiforme major (EMM), Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) have been reported in patients receiving TAGRISSO. Withhold TAGRISSO if EMM, SJS, or TEN is suspected and permanently discontinue if confirmed
- Postmarketing cases of cutaneous vasculitis including leukocytoclastic vasculitis, urticarial vasculitis, and IgA vasculitis have been reported in patients receiving TAGRISSO. Withhold TAGRISSO if cutaneous vasculitis is suspected, evaluate for systemic involvement, and consider dermatology consultation. If no other etiology can be identified, consider permanent discontinuation of TAGRISSO based on severity
- Aplastic anemia has been reported in TAGRISSO-treated patients in clinical trials (0.06% of 1813) and postmarketing. Some cases had a fatal outcome. Inform patients of the signs and symptoms of aplastic anemia including but not limited to, new or persistent fevers, bruising, bleeding, and pallor. If aplastic anemia is suspected, withhold TAGRISSO and obtain a hematology consultation. If aplastic anemia is confirmed, permanently discontinue TAGRISSO. Perform complete blood count with differential before starting TAGRISSO, periodically throughout treatment, and more frequently if indicated
- Verify pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating TAGRISSO. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TAGRISSO and for 6 weeks after the last dose. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception for 4 months after the last dose
- Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed infants from TAGRISSO, women should not breastfeed during treatment with TAGRISSO and for 2 weeks after the last dose
- Most common (≥20%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, were:
- TAGRISSO monotherapy: leukopenia, lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia, diarrhea, rash, musculoskeletal pain, neutropenia, nail toxicity, dry skin, stomatitis, and fatigue
- TAGRISSO monotherapy following platinum-based chemoradiation therapy: lymphopenia, leukopenia, ILD/pneumonitis, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, rash, diarrhea, nail toxicity, musculoskeletal pain, cough and COVID-19
- TAGRISSO in combination with pemetrexed and platinum-based chemotherapy: leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, lymphopenia, rash, diarrhea, stomatitis, nail toxicity, dry skin, and increased blood creatinine
ILD/Pneumonitis with TAGRISSO in combination with Pemetrexed and Platinum-based Chemotherapy:
ILD/Pneumonitis Following Definitive Platinum-based Chemoradiation Therapy (CRT):
For patients receiving TAGRISSO who have not received recent definitive platinum-based CRT, withhold TAGRISSO and promptly investigate for ILD in patients who present with worsening of respiratory symptoms which may be indicative of ILD (e.g., dyspnea, cough, and fever). Permanently discontinue TAGRISSO if ILD/pneumonitis is confirmed. For patients who have received recent definitive platinum-based CRT with Grade 1 ILD/pneumonitis, continue TAGRISSO or interrupt and restart, as appropriate. Permanently discontinue TAGRISSO in patients diagnosed with Grade ≥2 ILD/pneumonitis

‡Hüyük et al (2023) conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis extracting DFS and OS data from 15 studies with a total of 1893 patients with stage I-IIIA NSCLC, with and without occult lymph node micrometastasis/isolated tumor cells, after surgical resection. Meta-analyses for OS and DFS were performed on 14 and 8 studies, respectively. Survival probabilities for OS and DFS at different timepoints were extracted from published survival curves. OS probabilities were reported at every 6 months after surgery until 5-year follow-up for both micrometastasis and no micrometastasis. DFS was reported at every 3 months after surgery for the first 2-year follow-up, and at every 6 months after 2 years of follow-up until 5 years of follow-up.4
§According to the American Joint Committee on Cancer, micrometastases are defined as clusters of tumor cells measuring between 0.2 mm and 2.0 mm in greatest diameter, and ITCs are defined as single tumor cells or small clusters of cells, smaller than 0.2 mm in greatest diameter.6
*Chouaid et al (2018) conducted a retrospective observational study in 831 patients with complete resection of stage IB-IIIA NSCLC with no information on EGFRm status. Of the 831 patients, 200 experienced metastatic recurrence during the observed study follow-up period.2
†Based on a single-center retrospective review of 1640 patients who had undergone resection for stage I-IIIA NSCLC from a prospectively maintained database to compare patterns of recurrence. 181 of 346 patients with stage IIIA NSCLC (52%) and 257 of 1294 patients with stage I-II NSCLC (20%) developed recurrences. Staging was based on the 7th edition of the AJCC tumor, node, and metastasis classification of lung cancer.3
