NCT ID NCT07318883

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether adding an experimental drug called HLX07 to standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy helps people with advanced squamous non-small cell lung cancer. About 720 adults with stage 3B/4 disease will receive either the new combo or a placebo with standard treatment. The goal is to see if the new combination shrinks tumors and extends life better than current options.

Active substance
HLX07 (anti-EGFR antibody) plus serplulimab and chemotherapy
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a new first-line treatment option for advanced squamous lung cancer, potentially improving tumor shrinkage and delaying disease progression.
What could go wrong
This is an early-to-mid stage trial (phase 2/3) with 720 participants. The experimental drug may not prove more effective than existing treatments, and side effects from combining multiple drugs could be significant.
