Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective is to confirm Time on Treatment (TOT) related to afatinib treatment as first-line therapy in patients with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutation-positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

The observation in the real-world setting of the time from the start of the first-line afatinib until the end of subsequent treatment in this study will provide insights on the sequence of treatment for patients. The Japanese healthcare system will enable this study to evaluate multiple treatment options after afatinib treatment.
