World Health Organization performance status of 0 to 1 at screening with no clinically significant deterioration in the previous 2 weeks.
Must not have
Refractory nausea and vomiting, chronic gastrointestinal diseases, inability to swallow the formulated product, or previous significant bowel resection that would preclude adequate absorption of osimertinib.
Mean resting QTc >470 msec or any clinically important abnormalities in rhythm, conduction, or morphology of resting electrocardiogram or any factors that increase the risk of QTc prolongation or risk of arrhythmic events.

Pivotal Trial
Summary
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy and osimertinib in patients with advanced lung cancer that has spread outside the brain after earlier treatment. Osimertinib blocks a protein that helps cancer grow, and chemotherapy kills cancer cells. Osimertinib has shown improvements in progression-free survival over earlier treatments and is preferred for initial treatment of EGFR-mutant NSCLC.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced or metastatic non-squamous NSCLC who've seen their cancer progress after first-line osimertinib treatment. They should be in good physical condition, not planning to have surgery or radiotherapy, and willing to use effective contraception. People can't join if they've had certain treatments recently, have heart rhythm problems, severe diseases, another active cancer within 2 years, lung conditions like ILD/pneumonitis, or can't absorb the drug well.
What is being tested?
The study tests if adding osimertinib to chemotherapy is better than adding a placebo (a substance with no therapeutic effect) for NSCLC patients whose disease progressed after initial osimertinib therapy. Participants will receive either the combination of chemotherapy plus osimertinib or chemotherapy plus placebo.
What are the potential side effects?
Osimertinib may cause side effects such as diarrhea, rashes, dry skin; nail changes; mouth sores; reduced appetite; fatigue; cough and shortness of breath. Chemotherapy can lead to hair loss, nausea/vomiting, increased risk of infection due to low blood cell counts.

Study Objectives
Study objectives can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.Primary study objectives
Progression free survival(PFS):time from randomization until progression(intra- or extracranial whichever occurs first)per RECIST 1.1(for extracranial)and CNS RECIST 1.1(for intracranial progression)as assessed by Investigator or death due to any cause
Secondary study objectives
Extracranial PFS is defined as time from randomization until extracranial progression per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by the Investigator at local site or death due to any cause
Intracranial PFS is defined as time from randomization until intracranial progression per CNS RECIST 1.1 as assessed by the Investigator at local site or death due to any cause

Trial Design
2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: Treatment Arm AExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
All randomized patients will receive osimertinib 80 mg QD with pemetrexed (500 mg/m\^2) (with pre-treatment) plus either cisplatin (75 mg/m\^2) or carboplatin (\[AUC\] 5), both administered on Day 1 of 21-day cycles for 4 cycles, followed by osimertinib 80 mg QD plus pemetrexed maintenance (500 mg/m\^2) on Day 1 of 21-day cycles
Group II: Treatment Arm BPlacebo Group1 Intervention
All randomized patients will receive placebo QD with pemetrexed (500 mg/m\^2) (with pre-treatment) plus either cisplatin (75 mg/m\^2) or carboplatin (AUC5), both administered on Day 1 of 21-day cycles for 4 cycles, followed by placebo QD plus pemetrexed maintenance (500 mg/m\^2) on Day 1 of 21-day cycles

Other Research
The most common treatments for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) include EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs) like Osimertinib, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. Osimertinib works by specifically targeting and inhibiting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations that drive cancer cell growth and proliferation, making it highly effective for patients with these mutations.
Chemotherapy, on the other hand, uses cytotoxic drugs to kill rapidly dividing cancer cells, though it affects both cancerous and healthy cells. Immunotherapy, such as anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapies, enhances the body's immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells.
These treatments are crucial for NSCLC patients as they offer targeted and systemic approaches to control and potentially eradicate the cancer, improving survival rates and quality of life.
