However, <jats:italic>EGFR</jats:italic> exon 20 insertions are structurally and pharmacologically heterogeneous, with variability in their position and size having implications for response to different EGFR TKIs. The second-generation ErbB family blocker, afatinib, is approved for the first-line treatment of <jats:italic>EGFR</jats:italic> mutation-positive NSCLC and has been shown to have a broad inhibitory profile against common and uncommon <jats:italic>EGFR</jats:italic> mutations. Here, we describe a patient with bilateral multifocal lung adenocarcinoma harboring a very rare <jats:italic>EGFR</jats:italic> exon 20 insertion (c.2317_2319dup3; p.H773dup), who has been receiving treatment with afatinib for 4.5 years.

The other patient received afatinib in the context of a global compassionate use program and had progressive disease. Our findings may be of clinical relevance for patients carrying tumors with this rare mutation as epidemiological evidence suggests that p.H773dup may function as a driver mutation in NSCLC.
