Adjuvant Befotertinib in Stage IB-IIIB Non-small Cell Lung Cancer With Positive EGFR Sensitive Mutations
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This multicenter, randomized, controlled, double-blind, double-simulated, Phase III study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Befotertinib compared with Icotinib as adjuvant treatment in EGFR-sensitive mutation-positive stage IB-IIIB (T3N2M0) non-small cell lung cancer after surgical resection.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Befotertinib + Icotinib placebo Befotertinib (75 mg or 100 mg orally, once daily) and Icotinib placebo(125 mg orally, three times daily)，in accordance with the randomization schedule |
Drug: Befotertinib + Icotinib placebo
The initial dose of Befotertinib is 75 mg orally once daily (QD) for 21 days, and then increased to 100 mg orally QD in the absence of serious side effects , CTCAE grade ≥ 2 headache or thrombocytopenia during the 21 days.
Befotertinib can be taken on an empty stomach or after meals, and the medication is used until the disease relapses or intolerable toxicity occurs, or the treatment lasts for 3 years (disease recurrence includes local recurrence and/or distant metastasis)
Icotinib placebo 125 mg three times daily, on an empty stomach or in combination with food, use medication until the disease relapses or intolerable toxicity occurs or treatment lasts for 2 years (disease recurrence includes local recurrence and/or distant metastasis).

Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Willingness to sign informed consent prior to any study specific procedures, and ability to with scheduled visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.
-
Male or female, aged at least 18 years.
-
Histologically confirmed primary NSCLC, and mainly non-squamous cell carcinoma (including mixed type carcinoma mainly composed of adenocarcinoma components).
-
Absence of brain metastasis.
-
Complete resection of histologically confirmed Stage IB, II, IIIA or IIIB(T3N2M0) according to the TNM staging system for lung cancer (AJCC/UICC 8th edition), with negative margins.
-
Confirmation by the central laboratory that the tumor harbors one of the 2 common EGFR mutations known to be associated with EGFR-TKI sensitivity (Ex19del, L858R).
-
Patients who fully recover from surgery during randomization (any surgery must achieve complete postoperative wound healing) and should receive adjuvant treatment within 4-10 weeks after surgery.
-
ECOG-PS score of 0 or 1 and did not deteriorate 2 weeks before the first administration of the investigational drug, with a minimum expected survival greater than 12 weeks.
-
Female subjects with fertility need to have a negative serum pregnancy test during screening.
-
Female subjects who have possibility of becoming pregnant, as well as male subjects whose partners are women of childbearing age, must use a highly effective contraceptive method (such as oral contraceptives, intrauterine devices, abstinence or barrier contraception combined with spermicides) throughout the study and continue to use contraception for 3 months after the end of treatment.
Exclusion Criteria:
-
There are unresectable or metastatic diseases, pathological reports showing positive surgical margins under the microscope or extranodal invasion, or lesions left after surgery, or suspicious lesions determined by imaging after surgery. Subjects receiving only wedge resection.
-
Upper lung groove cancer.
-
Patient with complete resection of the right lung with NSCLC.
-
Malignancies other than NSCLC within 5 years prior to first dosage, except for malignant tumors that can be cured after treatment (including but not limited to fully treated thyroid cancer, cervical carcinoma in situ, basal or squamous cell skin cancer, or breast ductal carcinoma in situ treated with radical surgery).
-

-

-
Echocardiography showed LVEF <50%.
-
Hypertension was clinically uncontrollable (e.g., blood pressure >160/100 mmHg; Except that isolated elevated readings that were determined by the investigators to be clinically insignificant or controllable hypertension.)
Within 6 months before the first medication, there were the following situations:
-
Congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association rating III or IV).

-
There are serious gastrointestinal functional abnormalities in clinical practice that may affect drug intake, transportation, or absorption, such as inability to take medication orally, uncontrollable nausea or vomiting, history of extensive gastrointestinal resection, untreated recurrent diarrhea, atrophic gastritis, untreated stomach diseases requiring long-term use of proton pump inhibitors, gastrointestinal obstruction, active diverticulitis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, etc.

-
Inoculate with a live vaccine within 180 days before the first medication.
-
Researchers believe that it may affect protocol compliance or affect the signing of informed consent forms by participants (such as a history of mental illness or drug abuse, alcoholism or other addiction), or any other clinically significant disease or condition that is not suitable for participation in this clinical trial (such as laboratory abnormal results, clinically active diverticulitis, abdominal abscess).
