Efficacy and Safety of Sacituzumab Tirumotecan Combined with Furmonertinib in Patients with Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Who Have Progressed After EGFR-TKI and Platinum-Based Chemotherapy.
Read the detailed description
Currently, treatment benefit after EGFR-TKI resistance is limited. Newly published data from the Phase 2 ORCHARD study demonstrated that osimertinib combined with Dato-DXd showed encouraging efficacy and an acceptable safety profile in EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who progressed after first-line osimertinib therapy, with an ORR of 43%, median PFS of 11.7 months, and median DoR of 20.5 months. A drug of the same class, sacituzumab tirumotecan, exhibited prominent efficacy in the EGFR-mutated population, achieving an ORR of 60.0%, median DoR of 8.7 months, mPFS of 11.5 months, and mOS of 22.7 months, demonstrating promising potential. Furmonertinib is a novel third-generation EGFR-TKI with excellent efficacy and a favorable safety profile. Therefore, this study intends to explore the efficacy and safety of furmonertinib combined with sacituzumab tirumotecan in patients with advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC, aiming to provide greater survival benefits to patients and to guide clinical practice.

A Phase 2 study testing sacituzumab tirumotecan in people with NSCLC Stage IV and EGFR Gene Mutation, run by Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital at 1 site in China.
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 9 inclusion and 19 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Apr 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 China. 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?
Contact haiyan Sun (+8613920916450, hanyai@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
PFS (time frame: up to 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 23 Apr 2026.
