Embolic sequelae were rare but the main functional respiratory abnormality was reduced capillary volume. A respiratory check-up after severe COVID-19 pneumonia may be relevant to improve future management of these patients. Phase III clinical trials have demonstrated the merits of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with EGFR-activating mutations. Using a cohort of unselected patients treated with erlotinib, we sought to further describe patient and tumour characteristics, and to evaluate their progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Overall, 44 pulmonologists included patients with the required characteristics as follows Stage IIIB-IV NSCLC, EGFR-activating mutation, age≥18 years, and having to start erlotinib therapy or receiving erlotinib therapy as the first-line TKI, regardless of treatment-line. The analyses were performed using R software, with survival rates calculated according to the Kaplan-Meier method. A total of 177 patients, aged 72 years on average, were enrolled over a 2-year period. The cohort included 123 women (69.5%), 158 Caucasians (89.3%), 112 non-smokers (63.2%), and 167 adenocarcinomas (94.3%), at either stage IIIB (21) or IV (156), with a good performance status (PS 0-1, 127). Overall, 40 exhibited brain metastases at baseline (22.6%), while 75 had undergone earlier treatment (42.4%). Median PFS was 11.7 months and OS 25.8 months, with respectively a 1-year rate of 48.6% and 74%. The risk of death correlated with ECOG status (PS=2, HR=4.48, P<0.001) but not with brain metastasis (HR=1.67, P=0.278). This study has confirmed erlotinib's efficacy and safety for unselected patients, with PFS and OS comparable to those obtained in phase III tr
