Abstract
Background: Most advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients received targeted therapies of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors. However, few studies reported the relationships between adverse events (AEs) and psychological distress. Objectives: The aims of this study were to (1) examine the differences in the incidence of AEs, fear of progression (FoP), anxiety, and depression among 3 generations of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (first, gefitinib and erlotinib; second, afatinib; third, osimertinib) and (2) examine the difference in levels of FoP, anxiety, and depression between the presence and absence of AEs in NSCLC patients. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional study design. Patients with NSCLC (N = 120) were recruited from a medical center in northern Taiwan. Adverse events, FoP, anxiety, and depression were assessed by questionnaires. Results: The incidence rates of photosensitivity, mouth and throat sores, and diarrhea were significantly high in the gefitinib, erlotinib, and afatinib groups, respectively. A lesser proportion of patients experienced AEs in the osimertinib group, compared with those in the gefitinib and erlotinib, and afatinib groups. The incidence rates of FoP, anxiety, and depression were 13.8% to 26.0%, 24.1% to 40.4%, and 17.6% to 40.0%, respectively. Patients with photosensitivity, paronychia, and alopecia had significantly higher levels of FoP, anxiety, and depression. Conclusion: This study confirmed the priorities of care among 3 generations of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors in NSCLC patients, using both the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE 4.03) and PRO-CTCAE 1.0. Photosensitivity, paronychia, and alopecia were associated with higher levels of FoP, anxiety, and depression. Therefore, these AEs require further management. Implications for practice: Our study suggests a follow-up to address AEs and psychological distress.
