Lung cancer treatment based on the molecular classifi cation of the tumor has paved the way for multiple lines of targeted treatment, even though the development of resistance remains a major cause of concern. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) remains the poster boy for the use of targeted therapy, and the presence/absence of mutations in this gene has led to the development of inhibitors targeting specifi c mutations. We present the case of an advanced non-small cell lung cancer patient with EGFR T790M mutation treated with Osimertinib, a third-generation inhibitor.

The coexistence of lung cancer and pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is rare, and the clinical and radiological features are always similar between lung cancer and pulmonary TB. In the present case, a non-small cell lung cancer patient with an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-sensitive mutation was diagnosed with pulmonary TB during the treatment of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) because of the discrepant and confusing responses among different lesions. Therefore, we should combine clinical and radiological characteristics with pathological and microbiological tests to confirm the diagnosis of TB or lung cancer. It is a safe and selectable therapeutic strategy to treat EGFR mutant lung cancer patients with active TB using anti-TB medications and TKIs simultaneously.
