Scientists probe why lung cancer drugs stop working

NCT ID NCT03586453

Summary

This study is testing the drug osimertinib as a first treatment for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific genetic change called an EGFR mutation. The main goal is to understand how the cancer eventually becomes resistant to the drug. Participants will take osimertinib and provide tumor samples before treatment, during treatment, and if the cancer starts growing again.
