NCT ID NCT04001777

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-phase trial tests a new drug called APG-1252 combined with the standard pill osimertinib in 80 people with EGFR-positive non-small cell lung cancer that has stopped responding to other targeted therapies. The goal is to find a safe dose and see if the combination can shrink tumors. The study includes patients who have already tried several treatments, including osimertinib itself.
