New treatment option for Advanced Lung Non-Small Cell Carcinoma
Official title MRX-2843 and Osimertinib for the Treatment of Advanced EGFR Mutant Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04762199
What this study is testing
What is Flt3/MerTK Inhibitor MRX-2843?
Flt3/MerTK Inhibitor MRX-2843 is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for advanced lung non-small cell carcinoma.
Also referred to as MRX 2843, MRX-2843.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This phase Ib trial evaluates the best dose and side effects of MRX-2843 when given in combination with osimertinib in treating patients with EGFR gene mutant non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced). MRX-2843 and osimertinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.

- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document
- COHORT SPECIFIC ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
- Dose Escalation Cohort: Patients with progressive EGFR (+) NSCLC disease; previously treated or naive to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) (previous treatment with 3rd generation EGFR-TKI including osimertinib allowed
- Dose Expansion Cohort A (Treatment naive):
- Be treatment naive to osimertinib or any other EGFR TKI,
- If treated with an EGFR TKI in the adjuvant, must have discontinued treatment prior to disease recurrence and be free of recurrence for at least 12 months (+1 day) while off treatment
- Dose Expansion Cohort B (EGFR TKI resistant):
- Have progression of disease on osimertinib, erlotinib, gefitinib or afatinib as last previous systemic treatment,
- If not previously treated with osimertinib, must be EGFR-T790M negative as confirmed using a standard testing platform (circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid [ctDNA] or tissue based testing) prior to study treatment
- Backfill Cohort C: This cohort will be open to candidates who are not able to get into any of the dose escalation or expansion cohorts. Examples will be a patient already on osimertinib but without disease progression...
- Patients must meet the general eligibility requirements but do not meet cohort specific requirements,
- If currently on osimertinib, must have tolerated the standard dose of 80 mg for at least 2 cycles without any grade \> 2 adverse events,
- Will be treated at a dose previously established to be safe from the dose escalation cohort,
- Will not be included in the dose limiting toxicity (DLT) or maximum tolerated dose (MTD) determination,
- Approval by the study sponsor
What rules you out
- Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 4 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to entering the study
- Patients who have not recovered from adverse events due to prior anti-cancer therapy (i.e., have residual toxicities \> grade 1)
- Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents
- Patients with symptomatic untreated brain metastases would be excluded from this clinical trial because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the...
