A Phase II, Single-Center, Single-Arm, Prospective Study of Neoadjuvant Lazertinib Therapy in Resectable EGFR-Mutation Positive Lung Adenocarcinoma Patients Detected by Broncho-alveolar Lavage Fluid(BALF) Liquid Biopsy
Complete surgical resection is the standard treatment in early-stage lung cancer. However, the patients with early resected Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor(EGFR)-mutated lung cancers have high recurrence rate. The efficacy of neoadjuvant treatment by first-generation EGFR-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor(TKI) has been demonstrated, however, that of the third-generation EGFR-TKI(lazertinib) has not yet been fully investigated. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of neoadjuvant Lazertinib in resectable EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC and clinical application of extracellular vesicles(EVs) based BALF liquid biopsy to identify EGFR mutation without invasive tissue biopsy.
• Age ≥ 19 years
• Patients with suspected lung cancer on chest CT findings
• Patients with the following EGFR gene mutations in the test on bronchoalveolar lavage fluid: E19Del, L858R alone or concurrent rare EGFR gene mutations (T790M, G719X, exon 20 insertion, S768I)
• Patients whose tumor can be completely resected by surgery: patients with stage I-IIIB, or stage IVA who has single metastasis
• Patients not previously treated with EGFR-TKIs such as gefitinib, erlotinib, afatinib, dacomitinib
• Patients with the measurable lesion of 1 cm or more according to RECIST v1.1
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) 0-1
• EGFR-TKIs (gefitinib, erlotinib, afatinib,dacomitinib) naive patients
• Patients with adequate pulmonary and heart function for surgery
⁃ Adequate organ function defined as Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0g/dL Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1500/mm3 Platelet ≥ 100,000 /mm3 Serum creatinine≤ normal range\*1.5x Aminotransferase/Alkaline phosphatase ≤normal range\*2.5x Total bilirubin ≤1.5 mg/dL Liver metastasis: Aminotransferase/Alkaline phosphatase ≤ normal range\* 5x Bone metastasis Alkaline phosphatase ≤ normal range\* 5x
⁃ Female patients with childbearing potential should be using adequate contraceptive measures. Female patients must have evidence of non-child-bearing potential(Post-menopausal defined as aged more than 50 years and amenorrheic for at least 12 months following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatments)
⁃ Men with a female partner of childbearing potential must have either had a prior vasectomy or agree to use effective contraception for at least 14 days prior to administration of the first dose of study treatment, during the study, and for 3 months following the last dose of Lazertinib.
