New pill shows promise for rare lung cancer mutations
NCT ID NCT06010329
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing an oral drug called sutetinib maleate in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has uncommon EGFR mutations. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors and control the disease. About 66 adults will take the drug and be monitored for response and side effects.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Sutetinib maleate (a targeted cancer drug taken orally)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a new treatment option for people with non-small cell lung cancer that has uncommon EGFR mutations, potentially shrinking tumors and delaying progression.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase (Phase 2) trial with only 66 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may cause side effects and may not work better than existing treatments.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age 18 years old and above, male or female 2. Histopathological and/or cytopathological confirmation of locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC 3. Confirmation that the tumor harbors an uncommon epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation (tumor tissue biopsy) 4. At least one measurable lesion 5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score of 0, 1, or 2 6. A minimum life expectancy of \> 3 months 7. Adequate bone marrow reserve, hepatic, renal, and coagulation function Other inclusion criteria apply for participating in the study. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Participant ever used the epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR TKI) for anti-tumor therapy prior to enrollment (Cohort 1), or second generation EGFR TKI (Cohort 2) 2. Any systemic anti-tumor therapy such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy (including curative radiotherapy or spinal radiotherapy portion \>30%) used within 3 weeks prior to enrollment; immunotherapy within 4 weeks; any palliative radiotherapy for non-target lesions used to relieve symptoms and traditional Chinese medicines indicated for the tumor within 2 weeks prior to enrollment; Cohort 2: any EGFR TKIs within 5 half-lives. 3. Use or intake of drugs or foods containing potent inhibitors or inducers of cytochrome P450 isozyme 3A4 (CYP3A4) within 14 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is the longer, prior to enrollment 4. Surgical operation (excluding aspiration biopsy) of main organs or a significant injury within 4 weeks prior to enrollment 5.

Inability to swallow the study medication, any seriously (NCI-CTCAEv5.0 ≥ Grade 3) chronic gastrointestinal disorder, malabsorption syndrome or any other conditions with influence on gastrointestinal absorption 7. Active central nervous system metastases 8. Any active infection which has not been controlled at screening Other exclusion criteria apply for participating in the Study.
