Does a daily pill hold up outside the trial? Real-World lung cancer data put aumolertinib to the test
NCT ID NCT07838532
First seen Sep 24, 2026 · Last updated Sep 25, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
Researchers are examining how well aumolertinib works and how safe it is in everyday practice for adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has an EGFR T790M mutation and has worsened after an earlier EGFR drug. The study reviews deidentified medical records from Jiangsu Province, China, for patients who started aumolertinib in routine care between 2020 and 2024. It tracks overall survival, time until cancer progression or death, and side effects, and compares these real-world outcomes with those from the earlier APOLLO trial.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- aumolertinib, an EGFR-targeted lung cancer drug taken as a daily pill
- What this could lead to
- If the real-world data match the earlier trial, this could strengthen confidence that aumolertinib helps similar patients outside strict research settings and support decisions about insurance coverage.
- What could go wrong
- This is a retrospective look at medical records, not a randomized comparison, so differences in patients and care could distort the results. It cannot prove that aumolertinib causes any particular outcome.

Who can take part
This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
The study population will be drawn from outpatient and inpatient records of urban and rural residents of Jiangsu Province covered by the China Health and Medical Big Data Center (East). All records with aumolertinib exposure and a lung cancer-related code between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2024, will undergo broad screening. The final cohort will be confirmed using pathology, disease stage, prior treatment, progression, and genetic testing results. Vital status will be linked by the data custodian within a secure environment to the Jiangsu Province Resident Death Registration Database. All patients' medical records have been anonymised.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Age 18 years or older at time zero. * Unresectable locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. * Prior continuous treatment with a first- or second-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor and radiographic or clinical documentation of disease progression during or after the most recent relevant regimen. * A documented positive EGFR T790M mutation result obtained after disease progression and before initiation of aumolertinib. * There is a clear record of the date on which aumolertinib was first administered, and there is at least one complete record of an efficacy assessment following treatment. Exclusion Criteria: * Any record of treatment with a third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor before aumolertinib initiation. * Inability to confirm any core requirement: non-small cell lung cancer, progression after a first- or second-generation EGFR TKI, or EGFR T790M positivity. * Another active primary malignancy before time zero that, according to prespecified rules, could materially affect interpretation of survival outcomes. * The medical records were incomplete.
