Brief Summary

FHND-9041 capsule is a novel third-generation EGFR inhibitor targeting EGFR-sensitive mutations. This first-in-human study is a single-arm, multi-center, open-label, non-randomized Phase Ⅰ/II trial. It aims to evaluate the tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics, and anti-tumor activity of FHND-9041 in patients with NSCLC harboring the EGFRT790M mutation, particularly those acquiring resistance to prior EGFR-TKI treatment. Additionally, the study seeks to determine the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) of FHND-9041and assess its efficacy as a first-line treatment for patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC harboring EGFR-sensitive mutations.

Study Groups

Treatment Group (arm A, Dose Escalation Study)

In Phase I, patients with NSCLC harboring the EGFRT790M mutation and prior failure with EGFR-TKIs were enrolled. Using a "3+3" design, dose escalation and expansion studies were conducted to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of FHND-9041 at doses of 40, 80, 120, and 180 mg/day, with 3 to 9 patients per group. Phase II utilized the RP2D of 80 mg QD, determined from Phase I, to assess the efficacy and safety of FHND-9041 in patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC. The primary endpoint was Objective Response Rate (ORR), with Progression-Free Survival (PFS) as a secondary endpoint. Tumor response and disease progression were evaluated according to RECIST 1.1 criteria, and safety was assessed per CTCAE-5.0 standards.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

FHND-9041

Intervention Type: DRUG

In Phase I, using a "3+3" design, dose escalation and expansion studies were conducted at doses of 40, 80, 120 and 180 mg/day. At least 3 patients were enrolled in each dose arm, and no dose-limiting toxicities were observed. With a plateau observed at 120 mg/day, the 80 mg/d and 120mg/d groups were selected for dose expansion. The 80mg/d queue has expanded by 36 patients, and the 120mg/d queue has expanded by 39 patients. In Phase Ⅱ, after comprehensive analysis and consultation, at least 30 patients were enrolled according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. 37 patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR-mutated NSCLC receiving first-line treatment were enrolled.

Treatment Group (arm B, Dose Expansion Study)

In Phase Ⅱ, after comprehensive analysis and consultation, at least 30 patients were enrolled according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. 37 patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR-mutated NSCLC receiving first-line treatment were enrolled. Tumor response and disease progression were evaluated according to RECIST 1.1 criteria, and safety was assessed per CTCAE-5.0 standards.

<!-- -->

1. Subjects enrolled in the group of the second or third-line treatment patients with EGFR T790M mutations should have previously existed sensitive mutations (including Del l9, L858R, etc) and have previously received an EGFR-TKI (such as gefitinib, erlotinib, icotinib or afatinib) and experienced disease progression, and a written test report should confirm the occurrence of EGFR T790M mutation.

2. Subjects enrolled in the group of the first-line treatment patients with EGFRm+ should have not received systemic treatment regimen, including chemotherapy and/or EGFR-TKI, and a written test report should confirm the detection of EGFR sensitive mutations (including exon 19 deletion or L858R, both alone or co-existing with other EGFR site mutations).
