BRCA2 NSCLC

Discussion Topic
Stage IV NSCLC

Hi everyone. I'm looking for anyone who has a BRCA2 mutation and advanced NSCLC. Husband is now taking PARP Inhibitor Lynparza b/c last year one of his second line treatments - Avastin - supposedly caused his colon  to perforate and his onc doesn't want to put him back on traditional chemo/immunotherapy. The Lynparza seems to be working - enlarged lymph nodes have gotten smaller.  Challenge is that Medicare won't cover it since it's off label for LC.

Tagrisso after Afatinib

Discussion Topic
Stage IV NSCLC

Hi, my mum developed resistance to Afatinib after around 7 months. Docs did a rebiopsy and found T790 mutation so they're switching her to Tagrisso 80mg. Would like to verify that the gap days from her last intake of Afatinib has to be at least 10 days before starting Tagrisso? I only found one material online regarding this which states that the median time between stopping Afatinib and starting Tagrisso is between 10-16 days. Many thanks!
