Real-World data on firmonertinib for lung cancer that spread to the brain
NCT ID NCT07239102
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked back at medical records of 300 people with EGFR-positive non-small cell lung cancer that had spread to the brain or spinal cord. All patients were treated with the drug firmonertinib. Researchers analyzed how long the drug controlled brain tumors and explored why some patients stopped responding. The goal is to better understand real-world effectiveness and resistance patterns.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Firmonertinib (oral drug)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this analysis could help identify which patients benefit most from firmonertinib and how resistance develops, guiding future treatment strategies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a retrospective review of past medical records, not a controlled trial. Results may be influenced by incomplete data or patient selection bias.

Who can take part
This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
All patients who have received at least one treatment cycle of Firmonertinib are defined as the Full Analysis Set (FAS). Except for specially specified study endpoints (such as DOR which is evaluated only in the population achieving objective response), the primary endpoints, secondary endpoints, and safety endpoints of the study are evaluated in the FAS.
