About this trial

Lung cancer is currently the world's largest malignant tumor for cancer-related deaths with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounting for 80%-85%. Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs), especially the 3rd-generation EGFR-TKIs have demonstrated strong antitumor effects in EGFR-positive patients.

However, approximately 20% of EGFR-positive were primarily resistant to 3rd generation EGFR-TKIs, i.e., clinical non-response or disease progression in the short term.

This study aimed to clarify the molecular indicators that predict the benefits of 3-rd EGFR-TKIs as first-line therapy in NSCLCpatients with EGFR-positive. Further, to clarify their primary drug resistance mechanisms, which is of great significance for the treatment and clinical decision-making of NSCLC disease.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Objective Response Rate (ORR)

The proportion of patients with a complete response or partial response to treatment according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1)

Time frame
2 years
2

Progression-free survival (PFS)

Time from the beginning of treatment to the first disease progression (PD) in patients with advanced NSCLC

Time frame
3 years
3

Differences in genomic profiles of tumor tissues and ctDNA clearance of third-generation EGFR-TKIs sensitive and primary drug-resistant NSCLC.

The patients who don't achieve partial response or progress within 6 months are defined as the primary resistant group. The genomic profiles and ctDNA clearance detected by Next-generation gene sequencing will be compared between the primary drug-resistant group and sensitive-drug group.

Time frame
3 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Overall survival (OS)

Overall survival (OS) is defined as the duration from the beginning of first-line immunotherapy until death due to any cause. Subjects who are still alive at the end of the study observation period will be censored at the time of last known vital status

Time frame
5 years
2

Disease Control Rate (DCR)

The proportion of patients with a complete response or partial response or stable desease to treatment according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1)

Time frame
3 years

Other outcomes

1

The correlation between tumor microenvironment signature and efficacy of 3rd EGFR-TKIs

The baseline paraffin-embedded tissue is collected and assessed by multiplex immunohistochemistry, including T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, NK lymphocytes, macrophagocyte, and DC cells. And explore the association between tumor microenvironment signature and primary resistance and the efficacy of 3rd EGFR-TKIs during the enrolled observation process.

Time frame
