Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
At least one measurable lesion or evaluable disease. Measurable disease is defined as lesions that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as ≥10 mm with CT scan, as ≥20 mm by chest x-ray, or ≥10 mm with calipers by clinical exam.
ECOG performance status 0-1
Must not have
Leptomeningeal disease.
Major injuries and/or surgery with then past 4 weeks prior to the start of study treatment with incomplete wound healing and/or planned surgery during the on-treatment study period.

Summary

This trial will test whether a drug that targets specific mutations will be more effective in treating NSCLC than current drugs that are not targeted.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced NSCLC who have specific gene mutations and have progressed after standard treatments can join. They must be in good physical condition, not pregnant, willing to use contraception, and without recent serious illnesses or other cancers within the last 5 years.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Nintedanib on patients with certain genetic markers in their cancer cells. It aims to see if this drug improves response rates and slows down cancer progression compared to previous outcomes in unselected patients.
What are the potential side effects?
Nintedanib may cause liver issues, high blood pressure, bleeding problems, stomach upset or diarrhea. There's also a risk of blood clots or heart attacks especially for those with a history of such conditions.
