About

The Single-arm, multicenter study evaluate the safety and efficacy of Anlotinib Hydrochloride combined with EGFR TKIs in treating Advanced NSCLC With acquired Resistance to EGFR TKIs

Full description

EGFR TKI have been approved as first-line treatment in NSCLC patients harboring EGFR mutation. However, the acquired resistance of EGFR-TKI occurs almost constantly. Anlotinib is a novel oral multitarget tyrosine kinase inhibitor and primary targeted to Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor (VEGFR), fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) , platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) and c-Kit. The ALTER-0303 trial showed that patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received anlotinib as third-line or further therapy had more survival benefit. The Single-arm, multicenter study evaluate the safety and efficacy of Anlotinib Hydrochloride combined with EGFR TKIs in treating Advanced NSCLC With acquired Resistance to EGFR TKIs

The serum or urine test indicates nonpregnant woman within 7 days prior to the study. Male patients agree to have contraceptive use during the study period and within 8 weeks after the end of the study period or have had surgical sterilization.

Exclusion criteria

• Small cell lung cancer (including Small cell lung cancer mixed with non-small cell lung cancer);
• Imaging (CT or MRI) showed that the distance between the lesion and the large vessels was less than 5 mm, or there were central tumors invading the local large vessels, or there were obvious pulmonary cavity or necrotic tumors.
• Patients with active brain metastasis, cancerous meningitis, spinal cord compression, or with brain or pia mater diseases detected by CT or MRI at screening time (patients with stable symptoms and complete treatment 14 days before enrollment may be admitted to the group, but no symptoms of cerebral hemorrhage should be confirmed by craniocerebral MRI, CT or venography evaluation).
