Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Provision of written informed consent prior to any study specific procedures, including screening evaluations that are not SOC.
  • Age ≥ 18 years at time of study entry.
  • Histologically confirmed NSCLC
  • Ongoing or planned osimertinib treatment according to marketing authorization (first line treatment of tumor positive for a common or uncommon EGFR mutation, or later line treatment of tumor positive for EGFR T790M mutation, assessed according to local standard. First line therapy is defined as therapy used to treat advanced disease. Each subsequent line of therapy is preceded by disease progression. A switch of an agent within a regimen in order to manage toxicity does not define the start of a new line of therapy. Experimental therapies when given as separate regimen are considered as separate line of therapy. Maintenance therapy following platinum doublet-based chemotherapy is not considered as a separate regimen of therapy.)
  • Clinical indication for radiotherapy of one or more lesions, for instance for local symptom control of primary tumor or metastasis, for oligoprogressive metastasis, or for disease control with conventional or stereotactic strategy. Radiotherapy of metastatic sites can be for bone, solid organ or soft-tissue lesions; initial size of brain metastases should be < 3 cm. Lung lesions should be no more than 5 cm.
  • ECOG performance status 0-2.

  • Life expectancy ≥12 weeks
  • Female subjects should be using highly effective contraceptive measures, and must have a negative pregnancy test and not be breast-feeding prior to start of dosing if of child-bearing potential or must have evidence of non-child-bearing potential by fulfilling one of the following criteria at screening:
  • Post-menopausal defined as aged 50 years or more and amenorrheic for at least 12 months following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatments
  • Women under 50 years would be considered postmenopausal if they have been amenorrheic for 12 months or more following cessation of exogenous hormonal treatments and with LH and FSH levels in the post-menopausal range for the institution.

About this study

Study Objectives are:

To assess the safety of osimertinib treatment continuation during irradiation therapy for palliation or oligoprogressive disease by assessment of grade 3-5 AEs during and after concomitant osimertinib and irradiation of tumor sites.

To assess the efficacy of osimertinib treatment continuation during irradiation therapy for palliation or oligoprogressive disease.

To investigate Quality of Life during and after irradiation therapy and concomitant osimertinib.

Read the detailed description

Many patients with advanced lung cancer require palliative irradiation of metastases to relieve symptoms and prevent local complications. In addition, guidelines recommend local treatment (including radiation) for oligoprogression during TKI treatment. Clinicians are faced with the decision whether to continue TKI therapy during irradiation, a practice for which there is little data, or to interrupt the oral treatment for the duration of radiation, which may lead to progression of non-irradiated lesions. For erlotinib and gefitinib there is some data indicating that cranial irradiation as well as stereotactic body irradiation may be carried out safely without discontinuing or interrupting the TKI treatment. Although some small case series report on a PFS benefit with irradiation during osimertinib treatment, there is very limited data on the safety of osimertinib during irradiation, and no evidence-based recommendations around stopping osimertinib for irradiation.

The hypothesis is that osimertinib can be continued without interruption during irradiation of individual tumor lesions in the setting of oligoprogressive NSCLC, or for local symptom control of primary tumor or metastasis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Osimertinib and Radiotherapy in people with NSCLC and EGFR Positive Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by AIO-Studien-gGmbH at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 14 inclusion and 48 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Frequency, time of onset and severity of Adverse Events as assessed by investigator during osimertinib treatment and irradiation therapy (time frame: 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Jan 2026.
