High-dose furmonertinib combo for EGFR lung cancer with brain lining spread
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a strong dose of furmonertinib (a targeted pill) combined with two other drugs, bevacizumab and pemetrexed, for people with EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain or spinal cord. It aims to see if this combination can better control the cancer and improve symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older
- You have non-small cell lung cancer with an EGFR gene mutation

- You are able to take care of yourself most of the day (ECOG score 0 to 3)
- You are willing to use effective birth control during and for 12 months after treatment (if applicable)

This trial tests a high-dose targeted pill, furmonertinib, in people with EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain. It aims to better control both the lung cancer and the brain metastases by targeting a specific gene change.
This trial tests a new way to give a targeted therapy (furmonertinib) to people with a specific type of lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain. It uses a higher, pulsing dose to try to get more medicine into the brain fluid and stop the cancer there.
This trial tests a combination of a targeted pill (furmonertinib), chemotherapy into the spinal fluid, and precise radiation for people with a specific type of lung cancer (EGFR-mutant adenocarcinoma) that has spread to both the brain and the lining around the brain. The goal is to see if this combination can better control the cancer and improve symptoms.
This Phase 2 trial studies furmonertinib alone or with other treatment options to control advanced lung cancer that has specific EGFR gene changes. It may help by targeting the cancer-driving EGFR mutation, especially in people whose mutation is confirmed by a ctDNA blood test.
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs, vebreltinib and furmonertinib, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has an EGFR mutation and high levels of a protein called PD-L1. It may be an option for those who have not yet had treatment for advanced disease.
This trial tests a higher dose of the targeted pill firmonertinib combined with two other drugs (bevacizumab and pemetrexed) given into the spine for people with EGFR-mutant lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain. It aims to see if this combination can shrink or control the cancer in the central nervous system.
