A plain-language summary of the goals, design and what participants do
The study focuses on patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer that carries an EGFR mutation, specifically either Exon 19del or Exon 21 L858R. These mutations are small changes in the cancer’s DNA that cause the tumor to grow more quickly. The trial compares a new combination of two medicines, amivantamab given through a vein and lazertinib taken as a pill, with the standard pill osimertinib and with a pill that looks the same but contains no active drug (placebo).
The purpose of the study is to see whether the combination works better than the standard pill. Participants are randomly placed into one of the three groups and receive their assigned treatment for several months, with regular clinic visits for safety checks and imaging scans; those in the placebo groups receive a matching inactive capsule.
The size of the tumors is measured using imaging scans and evaluated with a system called RECIST v1.1, which helps determine whether the cancer is shrinking, staying the same, or growing. “Locally advanced” means the cancer has spread beyond its original spot but not to distant parts of the body, while “metastatic” means it has reached other organs.
The trial runs in 6 steps – from screening to follow-up. Each step says what happens and what the team monitors.

is a medication used in this trial to treat patients with a specific type of lung cancer. It works by targeting and blocking certain proteins on cancer cells, which can help slow down or stop the growth of the cancer.
is another medication involved in the trial. It is used to treat lung cancer by specifically targeting and inhibiting the activity of proteins that are involved in the growth and spread of cancer cells.
is a medication used in the trial as a comparison to the combination of amivantamab and lazertinib. It is designed to target and block specific proteins in cancer cells, helping to control the growth of the cancer.
This medication is administered intravenously and is currently being studied in clinical trials for its effectiveness in treating EGFR-mutated locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It is a monoclonal antibody that targets specific proteins on cancer cells, helping the immune system to recognize and destroy them. Amivantamab is classified as an anti-cancer agent and is being evaluated for its potential to improve outcomes in patients with specific genetic mutations in their cancer cells.
Lazertinib is taken orally and is under investigation in clinical trials as a treatment for EGFR-mutated locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It works by inhibiting the activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), which is often overactive in certain types of cancer cells, leading to their growth and division. Lazertinib is classified as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor and is being studied for its ability to effectively manage cancer with specific genetic mutations.
This medication is administered orally and is currently approved for use in treating EGFR-mutated locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It functions by blocking the activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), which is involved in the growth and spread of cancer cells. Osimertinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor and is recognized in medical literature for its role in managing cancer with specific genetic mutations.
