Osimertinib Then Chemotherapy in EGFR-mutated Lung Cancer With Osimertinib Third-line Rechallenge

• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2024-06-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This phase II single-armed study will examine the clinical utility of retreating patients with osimertinib, in the third-line, following first-line treatment with osimertinib and second-line treatment with platinum and pemetrexed chemotherapy. The current standard of care for first-line Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutated Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (aNSCLC) is osimertinib, followed by cytotoxic chemotherapy.

The repeat of osimertinib following previous treatment failure is investigational, although supported by scientific rationale. The dosing and scheduling of osimertinib follows its use in approved settings. The investigators examine its tolerability and efficacy in this setting to ensure osimertinib is a safe third-line option for patients with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor mutated (EGFR+) Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer(aNSCLC).

Exclusion Criteria:

• Involvement in the planning and/or conduct of the study (applies to both Investigator staff and/or involved staff at the study site).

• A second invasive malignancy in the previous three years, other than localized non-melanoma skin cancer, which might be confused with the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutated lung cancer.

• Pregnancy or lactation

• Treatment with an investigational drug within five half-lives of the compound or 3 months, whichever is greater.

• Currently receiving (or unable to stop use prior to receiving the first dose of study treatment) medications or herbal supplements known to be potent inducers of Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) (at least 3 weeks prior).
