Study why some lung cancers don’t respond to EGFR pills
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at why certain EGFR-positive advanced lung cancers resist third-generation EGFR tablet treatment given as the first treatment. Your body samples and scan results help researchers understand the resistance, which may guide better future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are older than 18 years
- You have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that can’t be fully removed or has spread
- You have at least one tumor spot that can be measured on scans
- Your tumor test shows an EGFR mutation (from tissue or fluid such as pleural fluid or spinal fluid)
- You plan to start third-generation EGFR tablets as your first treatment
- You can share medical records, imaging, and provide samples, and you agree to sign consent

This Phase 2 trial studies treatment strategies for people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have certain cancer gene mutations (like EGFR, ALK, or ROS1). It aims to see how different treatments affect survival and tumor response.
This study uses leftover tissue samples from people with EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer to test how well different drugs work against their tumor cells. It may help guide future treatment decisions.
This study looks back at how people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were treated with EGFR-targeted medicines (gefitinib, erlotinib, and osimertinib). It may help doctors understand which patients benefit most and what side effects to expect.
This study looks at how well an EGFR-targeted pill (called an EGFR-TKI) works for people with advanced lung cancer that has an uncommon EGFR mutation. It may help doctors understand which patients benefit most and improve survival outcomes.
This study looks at how EGFR-mutated lung cancer changes over time and tries to find markers that can predict how well you might respond to treatment. You will provide a tumor sample for genetic analysis.
This study looks at real-world treatment for non-small cell lung cancer with a specific genetic change (EGFR mutation). It might help researchers understand how different treatments work in daily practice.
