WHAT TAGRISSO IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
TAGRISSO contains the active substance osimertinib, which belongs to a
group of medicines called
protein kinase inhibitors which are used to treat cancer. TAGRISSO is
used to treat adults with a type of
lung cancer called ‘non-small cell lung cancer.’ If a test has
shown that your cancer has certain changes
(mutations) in a gene called ‘EGFR’ (epidermal growth factor
receptor) your cancer is likely to respond to
treatment with TAGRISSO. TAGRISSO can be prescribed for you:

after complete removal of your cancer as a post-surgical (adjuvant)
treatment
or

as the first medicine you receive for your cancer which has spread to
other parts of the body
or

in certain circumstances if you have been treated for your cancer
before with other protein kinase
inhibitor medicines.
HOW TAGRISSO WORKS
TAGRISSO works by blocking EGFR and may help to slow or stop your lung
cancer from growing. It
may also help to reduce the size of the tumour and prevent the tumour
from coming back after removal by
surgery.

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
TAGRISSO as monotherapy is indicated for:

the adjuvant treatment after complete tumour resection in adult
patients with stage IB-IIIA non-
small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumours have epidermal growth
factor receptor (EGFR)
exon 19 deletions or exon 21 (L858R) substitution mutations (see
section 5.1).

the first-line treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or
metastatic NSCLC with activating
EGFR mutations.
3

the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic
EGFR T790M mutation-positive
NSCLC.
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Treatment with TAGRISSO should be initiated by a physician experienced
in the use of anticancer
therapies.
When considering the use of TAGRISSO, EGFR mutation status (in tumour
specimens for adjuvant
treatment and tumour or plasma specimens for locally advanced or
metastatic setting) should be
determined using a validated test method (see section 4.4).
Posology
The recommended dose is 80 mg osimertinib once a day.
Patients in the adjuvant setting should receive treatment until
disease recurrence or unacceptable toxicity.
