Overall Survival with Osimertinib in Resected EGFR-Mutated NSCLC
M Tsuboi et al, NEJM, June 4, 2023

In this planned final analysis of overall survival from the phase 3 ADAURA trial, adjuvant osimertinib resulted in significantly longer overall survival than placebo among patients with completely resected, EGFR-mutated, stage II to IIIA NSCLC as well as in the overall population (patients with stage IB to IIIA disease).

Translating predictive analytics for public health practice: A case study of overdose prevention in Rhode Island.
Bennett Allen et al. Am J Epidemiol 2023 5

Prior applications of machine learning to population health have relied on conventional model assessment criteria, limiting the utility of models as decision supports for public health practitioners. To facilitate practitioner use of machine learning as decision support for area-level intervention, this study developed and applied four practice-based predictive model evaluation criteria (implementation capacity, preventive potential, health equity, and jurisdictional practicalities). We used a case study of overdose prevention in Rhode Island to illustrate how these criteria could inform public health practice and health equity promotion.

Adjuvant Treatments for Surgically Resected Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Harboring EGFR Mutations: A Review.
Antonio Passaro et al. JAMA Oncol 2023 5

The use of adjuvant chemotherapy for stage IB-IIIA resected non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has limited benefit for improving cure rates. The proportion of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) alterations among patients with resected NSCLC is comparable to that observed in patients with advanced disease, and the use of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) has been demonstrated to prolong disease-free survival (DFS). With recent approval of osimertinib in this context, a focus on the rapidly evolving scenario and future perspective in clinical practice is needed and was the aim of the current review.

Cost-effectiveness of Pharmacogenomic Testing: How to Measure the Value of Having the Right Dose of the Right Drug for the Right Patient
L Shi et al, CDC Blog Post, May 8, 2023

A recent systematic review that assessed the cost-effectiveness of pharmacogenetic testing for drugs with existing guidelines concluded that most studies favored pharmacogenomic testing. The significance of this conclusion must be interpreted with caution and in the context of study factors, such as funding sources, geography, cohort, and the cost-effectiveness comparisons being made.
