EGFR-T790M and BRAFV600E are the common resistance mechanisms to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Standard treatment for the triple mutations of EGFR-19del, T790M, and BRAFV600E is still under debate. Herein, we present a case of therapeutic efficacy of osimertinib and dabrafenib plus trametinib on a 63-year-old man with advanced lung adenocarcinoma. This patient reached a remarkable progression-free survival of 9 months without any serious adverse reaction. At the progression of the disease, C797S mutation in cis was detected by liquid biopsy. Subsequently, brigatinib with cetuximab was administered but no curative effect was observed. Then, therapy was changed to apatinib combined with osimertinib. The subsequent CT scan showed that the lesions reached stable disease (SD), and the survival benefit has been evaluated. This case showed that the combination treatment of osimertinib and dabrafenib plus trametinib might be a great treatment option for NSCLC patients with triple mutations (EGFR-19del/T790M/BRAFV600E).
