New pill trial aims to outperform chemo for tough lung cancers

NCT ID NCT06956001

Summary

This study is comparing a new daily pill called firmonertinib against standard platinum-based chemotherapy for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have specific genetic changes (EGFR PACC or L861Q mutations). The goal is to see if the pill is more effective at controlling the cancer and has fewer side effects. About 300 adults who have not yet received treatment for their advanced cancer will be randomly assigned to receive either the pill or chemotherapy.
