Dr Roy Herbst speaks to ecancer about updated long-term results from the phase III ADAURA trial.

The results further demonstrate the survival benefit of three years of adjuvant osimertinib in patients with resected EGFR-mutated stage IB-IIIA NSCLC.

In the overall population, the 8-year overall survival rate was 79% with osimertinib versus 64% with placebo, with a 48% reduction in the risk of death.

In patients with stage II-IIIA disease, the 8-year survival rate was 74% versus 58%.

Dr Herbst explores the durability of the survival benefit following completion of adjuvant treatment and outcomes across predefined patient subgroups.
