Current evidence indicates that the association between afatinib or dacomitinib and risk of liver enzyme elevation remains uncertain in patients diagnosed with NSCLC. Some evidence suggests that gefitinib and erlotinib may be associated with a significantly increased risk for hepatotoxicity in patients with NSCLC. However, given that the elevation of liver enzymes was not definitely associated with EGFR-TKIs and publication bias, further studies are required to confirm these results.
