New pill takes on tough lung cancer mutation

NCT ID NCT07668752

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This phase 3 trial tests a new daily pill, GFH375, against standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) in 300 people with advanced KRAS G12D lung cancer that has worsened after prior treatments. The drug is designed to block the specific cancer-driving mutation. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either the pill or chemo, and researchers will compare how well each shrinks tumors and delays cancer growth.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
GFH375 (a targeted drug that blocks the KRAS G12D mutation)
What this could lead to
If successful, GFH375 could offer a more effective and less toxic treatment option for people with KRAS G12D lung cancer who have run out of standard options.
What could go wrong
This is an early look at GFH375 in a large trial; it may not prove better than chemo, and side effects are possible. The drug is still experimental.
