A Study Evaluating Furmonertinib Plus Platinum-based Doublet Chemotherapy Versus Osimertinib in Patients With Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Sensitizing Mutation-Positive Non-squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and Brain Metastases

Registration Number
NCT06970639
Lead Sponsor
Allist Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Brief Summary

This study is a Phase III, international, multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label clinical trial. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of furmonertinib plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy (Arm A) versus osimertinib monotherapy (Arm B) in patients with EGFR sensitizing mutation-positive non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and brain metastases. Additionally, a proportion of subjects will receive furmonertinib monotherapy (Arm C) to further explore its efficacy and safety profile.

Stage 1 is the safety run-in phase, planned to enroll approximately 30 subjects who will be randomized at a 1:1 ratio to receive either furmonertinib 80 mg QD plus platinum-based chemotherapy or furmonertinib 160 mg QD plus platinum-based chemotherapy, aiming to evaluate the safety and tolerability of different furmonertinib doses in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy.

Stage 2 is the randomized controlled phase, in which approximately 350 subjects will be randomized in a 3:3:1 ratio (Arm A : Arm B : Arm C) to receive the investigational treatments.

  7. Other malignant tumors in addition to the primary tumor; Skin basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma, superficial bladder cancer, cervical carcinoma in situ, breast ductal carcinoma in situ and papillary thyroid cancer that can be treated locally and have been cured can be selected; Subjects with a history of other malignancies and who have been cured for ≥ 3 years after radical treatment can be enrolled;

  8. Brain metastasis subjects with known brain stem metastasis, spinal cord metastasis and / or compression; Subjects with acute or progressive intracranial hypertension related symptoms during the screening period; Subjects with brain herniation or near brain herniation; Brain imaging revealed significant brain midline deviation and other subjects requiring urgent local treatment;

  9. According to CTCAE 5.0, there were subjects with grade 2 headache, vomiting, papilledema, etc. caused by increased intracranial pressure during the screening period; Subjects with grade 2 sensory / motor impairment and visual field damage caused by brain metastasis during the screening period; Subjects with mental symptoms (such as dementia, sluggish reaction, etc.) or seizures caused by brain metastasis during the screening period; Subjects who can control relevant central nervous system symptoms ≤ 1 grade by steroid hormones or anticonvulsants can be enrolled;

  10. The tumor invades the surrounding important organs and blood vessels (such as the heart, esophagus, superior vena cava, etc.) or has the risk of esophago tracheal fistula or esophago pleural fistula;

  11. Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease or cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risk factors exist.

  12. There are uncontrollable systemic diseases.

  14. Pulmonary complications lead to clinically severe lung damage.

  15. Severe acute or chronic infection

  16. Subjects who are receiving long-term systemic corticosteroid therapy with prednisone > 10 mg/d or equivalent anti-inflammatory active drugs or any form of immunosuppressive therapy before the first administration [subjects who need bronchodilators, inhaled or topical steroids or local steroid injection therapy, or as preventive medication for hypersensitivity reactions (such as medication before CT examination, etc.), or to control central nervous system symptoms in patients with brain metastasis can be included in the study];
