Popis: Abstract Purpose The most appropriate time of primary tumor radiotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) with EGFR-TKIs remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the time factor of primary tumor radiotherapy on long-term overall survival(OS)and provide a theoretical basis for further clinical research. Patients and methods In total, 238 patients with EGFR-TKIs and OS ≥ 12 months were statistically analysed. Patients were grouped: the D group without primary tumor radiotherapy and the R group with it.The R group were divided into three groups according to the interval between the start of EGFR-TKIs and the start of primary tumor radiotherapy: R0 − 30(
