What the film says

Read the transcript

This trial is for adults starting osimertinib for metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer with an activating EGFR mutation, without prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease. Only patients with persistent EGFR-mutant blood DNA after treatment enter randomization.

The idea: osimertinib blocks mutant EGFR growth signals. Participants continue 80 milligrams orally daily, either alone or with intravenous carboplatin and pemetrexed. Four chemotherapy cycles are followed by pemetrexed maintenance. Researchers compare time without cancer progression. Chemotherapy requires stable or responding disease.

This phase 2 study plans 571 patients. Memorial Sloan Kettering sponsors it; 15 US locations list recruitment.
