What is the mechanism of action of this treatment?

Osimertinib, an EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor, selectively inhibits mutated EGFR, preventing cancer cell proliferation and survival. Amivantamab, a bispecific antibody, targets both EGFR and MET receptors, blocking pathways that promote tumor growth and resistance. These targeted therapies are crucial for NSCLC patients as they offer more effective and personalized treatment options, potentially improving outcomes and reducing side effects compared to traditional chemotherapy.

What side effects are associated with this type of intervention?

Common treatments for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) like Osimertinib and Amivantamab have specific side effects. Osimertinib, an EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor, often causes diarrhea and rash, with severe side effects like dyspnea and mucosal inflammation being less common. Amivantamab, a bispecific antibody targeting EGFR and MET, can lead to rash, paronychia, infusion-related reactions, peripheral edema, thromboembolism, interstitial lung disease, and thrombocytopenia. These side effects are consistent across different clinical trials and populations.

What prior FDA approvals exist?

Osimertinib has been FDA-approved for the treatment of NSCLC with EGFR mutations, particularly for patients with T790M mutation-positive advanced NSCLC who have progressed on prior EGFR TKI therapy. Other EGFR inhibitors like Erlotinib and Cetuximab have also been approved for NSCLC, although their efficacy varies based on EGFR mutation status. Amivantamab, targeting both EGFR and MET, represents a newer approach, and while specific FDA approval details for Amivantamab in NSCLC are not provided, it is being studied for its potential benefits in this context.

What other types of research exist?

Promising novel alternatives to Osimertinib and Amivantamab for NSCLC patients include: <ol> <li>Pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy: This combination has shown improved overall survival in patients with advanced, nonsquamous NSCLC across various PD-L1 expression levels.</li> <li></li> </ol> Nivolumab plus ipilimumab: This combination has demonstrated efficacy in improving overall survival in patients with PD-L1-positive tumors. 3. Atezolizumab plus chemotherapy: This combination has shown benefits in progression-free survival and overall survival, particularly in patients with high PD-L1 expression. 4. Investigational agents like Tazemetostat and Nilotinib, which are being explored for their efficacy in various cancer types, including NSCLC.

OSTARA Trial Summary

This trial will test a new drug combo to treat advanced NSCLC caused by a gene mutation.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults with newly diagnosed or recurrent non-squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) that can't be removed by surgery. Participants should have a life expectancy of more than 12 weeks, no prior advanced NSCLC treatment, and must not have certain health conditions like interstitial lung disease or heart problems.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests the combination of Osimertinib and Amivantamab as a first-line treatment for NSCLC patients with specific EGFR mutations. It aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this drug duo in managing locally advanced or metastatic cancer.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Potential side effects may include allergic reactions to the drugs' components, issues related to infusion such as fever or chills, lung problems like difficulty breathing, skin reactions, gastrointestinal disturbances like nausea or diarrhea, and possible liver enzyme changes.
