What this study is testing
What is Furmonertinib Mesilate Tablets?
Furmonertinib Mesilate Tablets is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for nsclc patients with brain metastasis.
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 study is a Phase III, international, multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label clinical trial. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of furmonertinib plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy (Arm A) versus osimertinib monotherapy (Arm B) in patients with EGFR sensitizing mutation-positive non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and brain metastases.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
