Osimertinib plus or minus Savolitinib in MET-EGFR NSCLC Trial
 A groundbreaking phase 2 clinical trial has unveiled promising advancements in the treatment landscape for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), specifically targeting patients harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations alongside MET gene aberrations. A research article (DOI:10.1038/s41467-025-67950-8) published recently in Nature Communications, the FLOWERS trial meticulously explored the efficacy of osimertinib -- a third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) -- administered alone versus its combination with savolitinib, a potent MET inhibitor, as a frontline therapeutic strategy. The study's findings hold transformative potential for a substantial subset of NSCLC patients who traditionally face challenges with therapeutic resistance and disease progression.
