Summary

"This trial is looking for adults with advanced lung cancer who have not yet received chemotherapy. The study aims to see if a new medication called BI 1810631 (zongertinib) can

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with advanced non-small cell lung cancer and HER2 mutations, who haven't had systemic therapy for their condition. They must have a tumor that can be measured by scans and be able to receive platinum-based chemotherapy with pembrolizumab.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing if Zongertinib (BI 1810631) is more effective than the standard treatment of pembrolizumab plus platinum-pemetrexed chemotherapy in slowing down advanced lung cancer progression.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions to infusions, impact on organ functions, fatigue, nausea from chemotherapy, and potential issues related to inhibiting HER2 like diarrhea or skin rashes.
