Lung cancer drug interaction study seeks safer dosing
NCT ID NCT02197234
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how the lung cancer drug AZD9291 (osimertinib) affects the breakdown of simvastatin, a common cholesterol medicine, in 52 adults with a specific type of advanced lung cancer (EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC) that had stopped responding to earlier treatments. The goal was to understand if AZD9291 changes simvastatin levels in the blood, which could affect safety and dosing. Participants took both drugs and had blood tests to measure drug levels, with no direct treatment benefit intended from this part of the study.
