Brief Summary

This single-arm, open, multicenter clinical study is going to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination therapy with ectiecinib, pemetrexed and platinum in patients with metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR mutations who did not progress after pemetrexed in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy.

Detailed Description

The positive rate of EGFR mutations in lung adenocarcinoma patients is about 50% in both Asian population and China.Domestic and international clinical studies have found that targeted therapy combination chemotherapy can prolong the overall survival of patients with EGFR mutations, and a large number of class 2A evidences have been recommended.The 2018 CSCO lung cancer guidelines recommend EGFR-TKIs combined with chemotherapy for first-line treatment of advanced EGFR mutant NSCLC (grade II recommended).The independently developed ectinib in China, belong to EGFR-TKIs as gefitinib and erlotinib . The results of phase III clinical trial (ICOGEN) showed that the efficacy of ectinib and gefitinib was similar, but in terms of safety, the adverse reactions of the ectinib group were significantly lower than that of the gefitinib group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant.Targeted combination chemotherapy has relatively large side effects, which will increase chemotherapy-related side effects, mainly hematological toxicity. Foreign studies suggest that combination therapy may be more suitable for patients with good basic state.Based on previous studies, this study is going to use the strategy of short-term induction chemotherapy and drug sensitivity platform to find the most suitable patients for combined therapy.

This single-arm, open, multicenter clinical study is going to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination therapy with ectiecinib, pemetrexed and platinum in patients with metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR mutations who did not progress after pemetrexed in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy.

Patients received two cycles of chemotherapy with pemetrexed/platinum before enrolling, followed by ectinib: ectinib 125mg/ tablet, one tablet at a time, three times a day, take orally, until disease progression;Pemetrexed 500mg/m2, intravenously administered on day 1;Carboplatin AUC6/ Cisplatin 75mg/m2,intravenously on day 1,21 days for a cycle, a total of 6 cycles.Maintenance therapy: ectinib: ectinib 125mg/ tablet, one tablet at a time, three times a day, take orally, pemetrexed 500mg/m2, intravenously on day 1,21 days for a cycle, until disease progression.Make detailed records of toxic and side effects during medication.The efficacy was evaluated using RESIST standard after every 2 cycles of the treatment, the regimen will continue until the disease progression or the appearance of not tolerable toxicity.
