Lung cancer trial recreated using patient records – no new drugs needed

NCT ID NCT06675695

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 completed study looked at nearly 5,000 people with non-small cell lung cancer to see if information from electronic health records could produce the same results as a famous clinical trial called FLAURA. Researchers compared patients who started taking osimertinib to those on older drugs (erlotinib or gefitinib) using real-world data. The goal was not to test a new treatment, but to learn whether real-world data can be trusted to answer important medical questions.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that real-world data can reliably mimic clinical trials, potentially speeding up future research and reducing costs.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a new treatment trial. It cannot prove cause and effect, and results may not match the original trial due to data limitations.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
