Phase II Study Comparing Capmatinib and Osimertinib With or Without Ramucirumab for Advanced EGFR-Mutant, MET-Amplified Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating combinations of targeted drugs in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread and shows specific changes in the EGFR and MET genes. This phase II Lung-MAP trial focuses on patients whose cancer has progressed after treatment with osimertinib and aims to compare the effectiveness of combining capmatinib, osimertinib, and ramucirumab. The study also investigates safety, response rates, and survival outcomes while collecting biological samples for further analysis. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group receives capmatinib and osimertinib as oral medications plus ramucirumab given intravenously, while the other group receives only capmatinib and osimertinib orally. During the trial, patients undergo regular CT or MRI scans and blood sample collections to monitor their disease and treatment effects. The study includes detailed assessments of tumor responses and side effects over time. Throughout the trial, participants will have scans and blood tests at scheduled intervals to assess disease progression and treatment impact. Researchers will monitor progression-free survival as the main outcome, along with response duration and toxicity. Blood samples are also collected to study circulating tumor DNA. The study continues up to three years, with ongoing safety and efficacy evaluations. Participants must meet specific health criteria and provide informed consent before joining.
