Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • This is the largest study reporting on leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) in EGFR -mutated NSCLC-patients. • Median survival of EGFR -mutated NSCLC-patients with LM was 3.1 months. • Survival after LM-diagnosis in EGFR -mutated NSCLC-patients with LM may not be superior compared to existing data on that in EGFR -wild type NSCLC patients. • Six- and 12-month survival rates were 43.8% and 18.8%, respectively. |
