Rociletinib, a third generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor: current data and future directions

It is important to note that there are other 3(rd) generation EGFR TKIs with activity against T790M already approved by the US FDA (osimertinib) and many others in development. Future research will focus on figuring out which patients can benefit the most from a particular medication with minimal side effects, and further resistance mechanisms after rociletinib.
