Hope for Drug-Resistant lung cancer: new combo trials underway

NCT ID NCT02143466

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

Summary

This study tests two different drug combinations in people with advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer whose disease has worsened after standard targeted therapy. Participants receive either osimertinib plus savolitinib or osimertinib plus selumetinib. The main goal is to check safety and find the right doses, while also looking for early signs that the tumors shrink.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Osimertinib (AZD9291) combined with savolitinib (AZD6094) or selumetinib

What this could lead to

If successful, this could point toward new combination treatments for advanced lung cancer that has stopped responding to standard targeted therapy.

What could go wrong

This is an early-phase trial focused on safety and dosing, so it is too soon to know if these combinations will work better than existing options. Side effects from combining drugs are also unknown.
