Scientists investigate drug resistance in lung cancer treatment

NCT ID NCT07199959

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This observational study aims to understand how ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer develops resistance to the drug entrectinib. Researchers will analyze blood and tissue samples from 38 patients who have already taken entrectinib as part of their regular care. By looking at genetic changes, they hope to identify the mechanisms behind acquired resistance.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Entrectinib
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors understand why some lung cancers stop responding to entrectinib, potentially leading to better treatment strategies.
What could go wrong
This is a small, observational study that only looks back at past data. It won't test new treatments, and findings may not apply to all patients.
