Combination of Whole-Brain Radiotherapy with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Improves Overall Survival in EGFR-Mutated Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients with Brain Metastases

Brain metastases (BM) cause morbidity and mortality in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The use of upfront epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and withholding of whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) is controversial. We aim to investigate the im...
