Study Summary

This trial will compare osimertinib alone to osimertinib with chemotherapy in people with metastatic lung cancer that has a change in the EGFR gene.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer and a specific EGFR mutation. They must be able to swallow pills, have not had certain treatments before, and their organs must function well. Pregnant women or those with significant health issues like interstitial lung disease or uncontrolled diseases are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
Researchers are testing if adding chemotherapy (carboplatin and pemetrexed) to osimertinib, which is the usual treatment for this type of lung cancer, can better stop the cancer from growing compared to osimertinib alone.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Osimertinib may cause diarrhea, rash, dry skin, nail changes while chemotherapy can lead to nausea, fatigue, low blood counts increasing infection risk. Side effects vary by individual and should be monitored closely.
