This phase I trial studies the side effects, best dose, and how well osimertinib works when used in combination with stereotactic radiosurgery in treating patients with EGFR-positive non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). Osimertinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving osimertinib with stereotactic radiosurgery may work better in treating patients with brain metastases from EGFR-positive non-small cell lung cancer.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To determine the safety, tolerability and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of osimertinib, when
administered in combination with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in patients with EGFR positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with brain metastases.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the six-month intra-cranial and extra-cranial progression-free survival (PFS-6) in patients with EGFR positive NSCLC brain metastases treated with osimertinib and SRS.
II. To assess the overall survival (OS) in patients with EGFR positive NSCLC brain metastases treated with osimertinib and SRS.
III. To compare results of our clinical trial to patients with EGFR positive NSCLC with brain metastases treated with SRS alone (1-10 brain Metastases).
IV. To assess overall response rate (ORR) both intracranial and extracranial, defined as the proportion of patients with a best overall confirmed response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) in the whole body as assessed per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 by the investigator.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:
I. To assess the neurocognitive outcomes.
OUTLINE: This is a dose de-escalation study of osimertinib.
Patients receive osimertinib orally (PO) once daily (QD) starting on day 0 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo stereotactic radiosurgery of the brain over 30 minutes to 3 hours on day 8 per the treating physician.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 30 days and then every 3 months for 3 years.
