Can lung cancer patients skip a drug break for radiation?

NCT ID NCT05089916

Summary

This study aims to find out if it's safe and effective for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer (EGFR-positive NSCLC) to continue taking their daily oral medication, osimertinib, while also receiving radiation therapy. It involves 42 participants who need radiation to control a few growing tumors or to relieve symptoms. The main goal is to check for serious side effects when the drug and radiation are given together, to see if pausing the medication is necessary.
