Introduction: Almonertinib (HS-10296) is a novel, third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR TKI) that targets both EGFR-sensitizing and T790M resistance mutations. This first-in-human trial aimed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of almonertinib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC that had progressed after pevious EGFR TKI therapy.
Methods: This phase 1, open-label, multicenter clinical trial (NCT0298110) included dose-escalation (55, 110, 220, and 260 mg) and dose-expansion cohorts (55, 110, and 220 mg) with once daily oral administration of almonertinib.

Introduction: Although patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors harbor epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activating mutations commonly experience significant regressions when treated with erlotinib or gefitinib, they uniformly develop resistance to these agents. The secondary EGFR T790M mutation is found in 50% of patients with acquired resistance. Herein, we studied XL647, an oral small molecule inhibitor of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases, including EGFR, VEGFR2, HER2, and EphB4, in NSCLC patients known or suspected of having tumors harboring T790M.

A phase II study by the Southwest Oncology Group using consolidation docetaxel after cisplatin (P), etoposide (E), and radiation (XRT) resulted in a median survival time (MST) of 26 months. This randomized phase III trial evaluated whether consolidation docetaxel was responsible for this improved survival.

Materials And Methods: Forty chemotherapy-naive patients received on the day of chemotherapy, day 1, an anti-emetic regimen consisting of dexamethasone, palonosetron, and olanzapine. Patients continued olanzapine for days 2-4 after chemotherapy administration.
