Official Title
The Efficacy and Safety of Intrathecal Pemetrexed With High-dose Furmonertinib Plus Bevacizumab for EGFR-mutant NSCLC Patients With Leptomeningeal Metastases Resistant to Third-generation EGFR-TKIs: A Phase II Study.
Brief Summary

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intrathecal pemetrexed withhigh-dose Furmonertinib plus bevacizumab for EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancerpatients with leptomeningeal metastases after resistance to third-generation EGFR-TKIs.

Detailed Description

This prospective interventional study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of
intrathecal pemetrexed with high-dose Furmonertinib plus bevacizumab for EGFR-mutant
NSCLC patients with leptomeningeal metastases after resistance to third-generation
EGFR-TKIs.

Approximately 30 EGFR-mutant Non-small cell lung cancer patients with leptomeningeal
metastasis or leptomeningeal progression after resistant to third generation EGFR-TKIs
were enrolled and treated with intrathecal pemetrexed with high-dose furmonertinib plus
bevacizumab. cerebrospinal fluid and blood samples will be collected before and after
pemetrexed resistance to analyze molecular mechanisms. Second-generation gene detection
will be performed to identify potential resistance mechanisms to pemetrexed. The study is
expected to commence recruitment in mainland China in about August 2024. It is expected
that the trial will end in April 2026.

2. Subjects who have received any of the following treatments must be excluded:
Have received radiation within 14 days prior to the first dose or have not
recovered from radiation-related toxicity. Chest and extra-brain palliative
radiotherapy, stereotactic radiosurgery, and stereotactic body radiotherapy may
be performed 7 days prior to the first dose.

-

3. Presence of spinal cord compression.

-

4. History of other malignant tumors within 2 years.

5. Adverse events (except alopecia of any degree) of CTCAE > grade 4 due to prior
treatment (e.g., adjuvant chemotherapy, radiotherapy, etc.) prior to the first
dose.

6. History of stroke or intracranial hemorrhage within 6 months prior to the first
dose.

-

7. The presence of any severe or poorly controlled systemic disease, including
poorly controlled hypertension and active bleeding in the judgment of the
investigator.

hepatitis B (HBV), hepatitis C (HCV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and
COVID-19 infection.

10. Past history of interstitial lung disease, drug-induced interstitial lung
disease, radiation pneumonitis requiring steroid therapy or interstitial lung
disease with active clinical symptoms, immune pneumonia caused by
immunotherapy.

-

11. Refractory nausea and vomiting, chronic gastrointestinal disease, difficulty
swallowing drugs, or inability to adequately absorb Furmonertinib due to
previous bowel resection.
