Popis: ABSTRACT Background Mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene are the most common targetable gene alterations in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In Japan, approximately 40% of patients who undergo surgical resection for non‐squamous NSCLC have EGFR mutations. However, no long‐term studies have been conducted including a large number of EGFR‐positive NSCLC patients with postoperative recurrence (PR). Methods We conducted a retrospective observational study of the data of EGFR‐positive NSCLC patients with PR who had undergone surgery at the Shizuoka Cancer Center between October 2002 and November 2017. We evaluated post‐recurrence overall survival (PRS) and postoperative overall survival (POS) using the Kaplan–Meier method and identify any associations between the clinical variables at recurrence and PRS using univariate and multivariate analysis. Results We enrolled 162 patients. The median observation time for PRS was 4.95 years (range, 0.82–13.25) and POS was 5.81 years (range, 2.84–16.71). The median PRS was 5.17 years (95% confidence interval [CI], 3.90–5.61) and POS was 7.07 years (95% CI, 5.88–8.01). Univariate analysis identified male sex (median PRS: 3.32 vs. 5.39 years; p
