This study aims to evaluate the real-world effectiveness and safety of third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs)-such as osimertinib, aumolertinib, and furmonertinib-as adjuvant therapy for patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in China. Approximately 500 eligible patients are planned to be enrolled. All participants must have been diagnosed with Stage IA NSCLC (according to the 8th edition of the AJCC staging system) following surgical resection, harboring EGFR-sensitive mutations, and presenting with high-risk recurrence factors (e.g., poor differentiation, lymphovascular invasion, and spread through air spaces). This is a non-interventional, real-world study that does not alter physicians' original prescribing habits or clinical management strategies. Patients will receive standard treatment with third-generation EGFR-TKIs according to routine clinical practice (typically for a duration of three years). The research team will periodically collect follow-up data, with a primary focus on postoperative disease-free survival (DFS) and drug safety profiles. Through this investigation, we seek to determine whether this specific population of high-risk early-stage patients can derive clinical benefit from postoperative targeted therapy. The findings are expected to provide evidence to support the development of future clinical guidelines.

This is an observational, non-interventional study. The interventions listed herein refer to routine standard adjuvant therapies administered entirely at the discretion and implementation of the attending physicians, without any interference from the study protocol. The research team is solely responsible for observing and collecting data, and does not participate in or influence patients' treatment decisions.
