First-line treatment with osimertinib can be safe and effective in EGFR-mutated NSCLC even in presence of multiple negative predictive factors (poor Performance Status, diffuse leptomeningeal involvement, TP53 comutation), suggesting that deferring local treatments can be feasible in this setting, allowing the patient to maintain a good quality of life.
