Abstract:

The present invention provides methods for treating a EGFR-mutant cancer in a patient by administering a selective CDK4/6 inhibitor described herein in combination or alternation with an EGFR-TKI to delay or reverse acquired resistance to previously administered EGFR-TKIs. In addition, methods for treating a EGFR-mutant cancer in a patient by administering a selective CDK4/6 inhibitor described herein in combination or alternation with an EGFR-TKI are provided wherein an intrinsically EGFR-TKI resistant EGFR-mutant cancer is sensitized to the effects of the EGFR-TKI.
