New drug combo targets Hard-to-Treat lung cancer
NCT ID NCT05488314
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Aug 28, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study tests a combination of two drugs, amivantamab and capmatinib, in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread. The goal is to find the best dose and see if the combination shrinks tumors. About 57 participants will be enrolled, and the study is currently active but not recruiting.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- amivantamab and capmatinib
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer (MET-altered NSCLC).
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with only 57 participants, so results may not apply broadly. Side effects could be significant, and the combination may not work better than existing therapies.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
