EGFR-TKI-induced Factor V deficiency in a patient with advanced non-small cell lung cancer: The first case report

Abstract

Osimertinib, a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), is routinely prescribed as first-line therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer, regardless of the presence of the T790M resistance mutation. This study reports a rare case of Factor V inhibitor detection during osimertinib therapy in a patient with lung adenocarcinoma. These findings underscore the importance of vigilant monitoring for coagulation abnormalities during EGFR-TKI therapy.
