The experts focus on clinical trial evidence supporting the use of combination therapies in EGFR-mutant mNSCLC. The panel reviews key data from the MARIPOSA and FLAURA trials, highlighting differences in patient populations, CNS imaging protocols, and reported outcomes. They emphasize that routine CNS surveillance allows for a more accurate assessment of intracranial progression-free survival and can inform optimal therapy selection. MARIPOSA trial data demonstrate that amivantamab plus lazertinib significantly improves intracranial progression-free survival compared to osimertinib monotherapy, effectively doubling outcomes in patients with baseline brain metastases. The discussion also addresses the importance of patient stratification based on risk factors, including high tumor burden, liver metastases, p53 mutations, and circulating tumor DNA levels, which may impact prognosis and response to therapy. The panel emphasizes that combination therapy is beneficial across populations, not limited to high-risk patients, and stresses the significance of first-line therapy selection in improving long-term outcomes. Safety profiles and tolerability are also introduced, noting the need for patient education and shared decision-making.

This opening segment establishes the program’s focus on EGFR-mutant mNSCLC, emphasizing the importance of identifying high-risk patient populations and discussing new combination therapies. The panel introduces the challenges in managing patients with CNS metastases, highlighting the need for effective systemic treatments that also demonstrate intracranial activity. Key agents, such as osimertinib and combinations with amivantamab and lazertinib, are briefly introduced, demonstrating their potential to improve progression-free survival and overall survival. The experts discuss the critical balance between treatment efficacy and patient quality of life, noting the importance of considering performance status and potential adverse events when selecting therapies. This segment also highlights that treatment decisions should be individualized, incorporating shared decision-making with patients. The speakers stress that CNS monitoring and early intervention are increasingly essential, and combination regimens are being explored as first-line strategies to maximize long-term benefit.
