Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

• Written informed consent obtained prior to any screening procedures.
• Histologically documented locally advanced or metastatic, stage IIIB/ IIIC or stage IV NSCLC with documented EGFR activating mutation (L858R or ex19del)

• Presence of at least one measurable lesion according to RECIST 1.1
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance ≤1
• Meet the following laboratory values at the screening visit:

• Absolute Neutrophil Count ≥1.5 x 109/L

Exclusion Criteria

• Prior treatment with EGFR-TKI.

• Presence of clinically significant ophthalmologic abnormalities
• Bullous and exfoliative skin disorders of any grade
• Presence or history of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia with thrombocytopenia.
• Known history of testing positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
• Cardiac or cardiac repolarization abnormality
• Major surgery: ≤4 weeks to starting study treatment or who have not recovered from side effects of such procedure.
• Unable or unwilling to swallow tablets or capsules
• Female patients who are either pregnant or nursing
• Women of child bearing potential who refuse or are not able to use a highly effective method of contraception as defined in the study protocol.
• Sexually active males unless they use a condom during intercourse while taking drug and for 3 months after the last dose of study treatment.

• Minimum Eligible Age: 18 Years
