Study Summary

This trial is investigating whether a new medication can help control brain metastases in patients with a specific type of lung cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with EGFR mutation positive NSCLC who have new brain metastases. They must be able to care for themselves, walk half the day, and meet specific blood test criteria. Women of childbearing age need a negative pregnancy test and all participants must use effective contraception. Exclusions include certain pre-existing conditions like lung disease or heart problems, use of strong CYP3A inhibitors or inducers, and inability to undergo MRI.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Osimertinib combined with Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) in controlling brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It aims to see if this treatment can manage tumors effectively in patients whose cancer has spread to the brain.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Osimertinib may cause side effects such as diarrhea, rash, dry skin, nail changes, mouth sores; less commonly it can affect the lungs causing breathlessness or coughing. SRS might lead to headaches, swelling at treatment site or short-term hair loss.
