Christine Lovly, MD, PhD, and Matthew Lee, MD, discuss evolving strategies for second-line treatment in EGFR-mutated non–small cell lung cancer. Lovly reviews how resistance mechanisms and prior therapy exposure guide treatment selection, including the use of targeted agents and antibody-drug conjugates. Lee underscores the importance of integrating emerging data from phase 3 trials such as MARIPOSA-2 (NCT04988295) and PALOMA-3 (NCT05388669) to refine sequencing decisions.
