If Tagrisso (Osimertinib) stops working, the next step often involves evaluating the cancer for new mutations or changes. This can help determine the most effective subsequent treatment. Consulting with your oncologist is crucial to discuss potential options, which may include:

- Switching to another targeted therapy: Depending on the new mutations, other tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) might be effective.
