A Study With BPI-1178 and Osimertinib in Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients With EGFR Mutations (EGFR)

An Open-label, Single-arm, Investigator-initiated Phase I Clinical Study Evaluating BPI-1178 Capsules in Combination With Osimertinib Tablets in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer With EGFR Mutations

BPI-1178 is a novel, orally administered inhibitor of both cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) and CDK6 kinase activity. This open-label investigator-initiated trial (IIT) phase I study was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral BPI-1178 in combination with osimertinib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) Mutations.

Study Overview

• Status: Recruiting
• Conditions: NSCLC
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: BPI-1178; Drug: Osimertinib

Detailed Description

This study is an open-label, single-arm, single-center clinical study initiated by the researcher. The plan is to enroll 20 patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations. The study aims to assess the safety and conduct preliminary observations on the efficacy of BPI-1178 capsules in combination with osimertinib in treating locally advanced or metastatic EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC patients who have developed resistance to osimertinib.
