This study was to investigate the survival difference between first-line first generation EGFR-TKIs and chemotherapy in patients with either Del19 or L858R, and to directly compare OS in these two mutation groups. Methods： Eligibles were all prospective and retrospective studies comparing EGFR-TKIs with conventional chemotherapy or receiving single agent EGFR-TKIs and demonstrating survival analysis based on mutation types. The primary outcome was OS measured as pooled hazard ratios （HRs）. All measures were pooled using random- effects models and 95% confidential interval （95% CI） was calculated. Results： A total of 14 studies incorporating 1,706 patients with either Del19 or L858R were included. Enrolling patients with Del19 or L858R in randomized controlled trials （RCTs）, first-line first generation EGFR-TKIs were associated with no OS benefit, compared with chemotherapy （pooled HR_TKI/Chemo for Del19： 0.82, 95% CI： 0.64- 1.06, P=0.14; pooled HR_TKI/Chemo for L858R： 1.15, 95% CI： 0.85-1.56, P=0.38）. Direct comparison of Del19 with L858R receiving with first-line first generation EGFR-TKIs demonstrated no significant survival difference （pooled HR19/21： 0.88, 95% CI： 0.67-1.16, P=0.37）. Conclusions： Among patients with advanced non-small cell hmg cancer （NSCLC） harboring Del19 and L858R, first-line first generation EGFR-TKIs demonstrated no survival benefit comparing with chemotherapy. Direct comparison between Del19 and L858R revealed no significant survival difference after first-line first generation EGFR-TKIs.展开更多
