Abstract

Both the first‐generation reversible epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors gefitinib and erlotinib and the second‐generation covalent epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR‐TKI) afatinib have significantly improved the survival of non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with activating EGFR mutations. However, a secondary EGFR T790M mutation leads to the clinically acquired resistance to the first‐ and second‐generation EGFR‐TKIs drugs. A number of the third‐generation wild‐type sparing EGFR inhibitors, for example, WZ4002, CO1686, AZD9291, HM61713, EGF816, ASP8173, and PF0674775, have been developed, among which AZD9291 has been approved by US FDA for the treatment of NSCLC patients with EGFR T790M . More recently, a tertiary EGFR C797S mutation was reported as the dominant resistance mechanism to the third‐generation irreversible inhibitors. It is highly desirable to develop the fourth‐generation EGFR inhibitors. This review summarizes the mechanisms of acquired resistance and the latest medicinal chemistry advances on the third‐ and fourth‐generation EGFR inhibitors, with special attention being paid to the allosteric and reversible inhibitors combating the tertiary EGFR C797S mutation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
