Study Summary

This trial will test if a new combination therapy of itacitinib and osimertinib is safe and tolerable for patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have a specific EGFR mutation and have progressed after treatment with an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor. They must not have untreated brain metastases, significant heart disease, or a history of certain lung conditions. Only one prior line of therapy for NSCLC is allowed in Phase 2.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and effectiveness of combining Itacitinib with Osimertinib in treating NSCLC. Participants will receive both drugs to see how well they work together against lung cancer that has worsened despite previous treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions at the infusion site, increased risk of infections due to immune system effects, liver issues, nausea, fatigue, and possibly other organ-related inflammations as seen with similar medications.
