Efficacy of osimertinib for preventing leptomeningeal metastasis derived from advanced EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer: a propensity-matched retrospective study
Abstract Background Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) is a severe complication of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This retrospective study aimed to investigate the potential use of osimertinib for preventing LM in patients with advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated NSCLC...
