About This Lung Cancer Study in Anchorage

This phase III trial compares the effect of bevacizumab and osimertinib combination vs. osimertinib alone for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer that has spread outside of the lungs (stage IIIB-IV) and has a change (mutation) in a gene called EGFR. The EGFR protein is involved in cell signaling pathways that control cell division and survival. Sometimes, mutations in the EGFR gene cause EGFR proteins to be made in higher than normal amounts on some types of cancer cells. This causes can

Who Can Participate

Inclusion Criteria

Patient must have a pathologically-confirmed diagnosis of non-squamous, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
Patient must have advanced disease, defined as - either stage IV disease, stage IIIB disease not amenable to definitive multi-modality therapy, or recurrent disease after a prior diagnosis of stage I-III disease. All staging is via the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC)/International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 8th edition staging criteria
Patient must have somatic activating sensitizing mutation in EGFR (e.g. but not limited to Exon 19 deletion, L858R, E709X, G719X, exon 19 insertions, L861Q, S768I). Patients with non-sensitizing mutations in EGFR (EGFR exon 20 insertions) are not eligible. Test results originating from a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act (CLIA)-certified or similarly accredited laboratory are acceptable; no specific assay is mandated. Plasma, cytology, or tumor tissue can be utilized for mutation testing *
