What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial is testing whether an experimental drug called TY-9591 can better control brain metastases in people with EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer, compared to the current standard treatment osimertinib. The study will enroll about 420 adults with this type of lung cancer that has spread to the brain, who have not yet received systemic therapy for advanced disease. Participants will take either TY-9591 or osimertinib daily, and researchers will measure how well the drugs shrink brain tumors and delay progression.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
TY-9591, an experimental EGFR inhibitor, compared to osimertinib (Tagrisso), a standard targeted therapy.
What this could lead to
If TY-9591 proves more effective at shrinking brain metastases, it could become a new first-line treatment option for this patient group.
What could go wrong
This is a phase II trial, so results are preliminary. TY-9591 may not outperform osimertinib, and side effects could be similar or worse.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Male or female aged ≥18 years and \<80 years. 2. Patients diagnosed with NSCLC by histology or cytology, with brain metastases. 3. Presence of an activating EGFR-sensitive mutations (including exon 19 deletions, L858R, the above mentioned mutations alone or co-existed with other EGFR-mutated sites). 4. No prior systemic antitumor therapy for locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC. 5. Stable brain metastases that do not require immediate or planned local treatment for it during the study period. 6. At least one measurable lesion according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) version 1.1. 7. The ECOG score is 0-1, and there is no deterioration 2 weeks before the study, and the expected survival is not less than 3 months. 8. Adequate bone marrow reserve function, and no liver, kidney and coagulation dysfunction. 9. Male patients and female patients of reproductive age should take adequate contraceptive measures from signing informed consent to 3 months after the last study drug treatment; Women of childbearing age have negative pregnancy test results within 7 days of the first dose. 10. Patients having recovered from all grade ≤ 1 toxicities related to previous anticancer therapies (CTCAE v 5.0) except for alopecia, platinum-therapy-related neuropathy (where ≤2 is allowed) before first dose of study treatment. 11. Patients can understand and voluntarily sign the informed consent form. 12. Patient able to comply with study requirements. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Any of the following treatment: 1. Previous treatment with EGFR inhibitor; 2. Previous treatment with Systematic antitumor therapy (including targeted therapy, biotherapy and immunodrug therapy, etc.); 3. Previous treatment with standard chemotherapy with 28 days before the first dose of the study drug, and traditional Chinese medicine antitumor therapy within 7 days before the first dose of the study drug; 4. Previous whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT); Receiving radiation to more than 30% of the bone marrow or with a wide field of radiation that had to be completed within 28 days of the first dose of study treatment; Radiotherapy with a limited field of radiation within 7 days of the first dose of study treatment or palliative radiation therapy for bone metastasis; 5. Uncontrollable or poorly controlled pleural, abdominal and pericardial effusion; 6. Uncontrollable cancerous pain; Anesthetic painkillers did not reach a stable dose at the time of enrollment; 7.
