Summary
This study tests a new oral drug called dositinib in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific EGFR mutation. The trial has two parts: first, finding the safest dose, then testing that dose in a larger group. Researchers will monitor side effects, how the drug moves through the body, and whether it shrinks tumors.
