VERSION HISTORY 
Version 3.0, 25 Aug 2017 
May be applicable for all sites in this study. 
Changes to the protocol are summarized below. 
 
Add the following exploratory objectives: 
To evaluate concordance, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV of EGFR mutation plasma testing 
by Bio-rad droplet digital PCR using other plasma tests or tissue test as reference, 
respectively. 
To evaluate the efficacy of patients who receive AZD9291 monotherapy and are T790M 
mutation positive detected by each of the five platforms, respectively. 
Add the “and/or blood” in the exploratory objective: “To explore the mechanisms of acquired 
resistance in patients who received AZD9291 treatment by NGS testing of tissue and/or blood 
samples from the collection at PD versus baseline.” 
In 1.2 Rationale for study design and doses, add “(Thermo Fisher QuantStudio3D digital 
PCR provided by Novogene Bioinformatics Technology Co. LTD)” after digital PCR in 
the sentence: “we will compare the Chinese current available methods including Roche 
Cobas, Super-ARMS (ARMS used in blood test, provided by Amoy Diagnostics Co., 
Ltd.), digital PCR and Illumina NGS (provided by Guangzhou Burning Rock Medical 
Examination Institute Co., Ltd.) to obtain descriptive information of each platform and 
clinically validate the usage of these platforms in companion diagnostic for AZD9291.” 
In Figure 1 Study flow chart, add note: “QuantStudio3D digital PCR will be used.” 
In Table 2 Testing Plan, add note: “Samples collected in other treatment visit will also be 
tested if necessary for exploratory objective.” 
In 4.1.2 Sample collection, add “QuantStudio3D” before digital PCR in the table and the 
following sentences: 
Remain DNA samples (if any) will be retested by Bio-rad droplet digital PCR platform 
retrospectively for T790M and sensitizing mutations (if enough amount of samples) and data 
will be compared with testing results of other four platforms. For retrospective test on all the 
remain samples, patient who are still on AZD9291 treatment will be informed (or EC approve 
informed consent waiver); for patient who can't get in touch will apply informed consent 
waiver. But the investigator should review the medical record to see if the patient expressed 
any objection to use his/her remain samples for scientific research purpose. If such objection 

3 (56) 
was recorded, then this patient’s remain samples should not be used.  
 
In 4.1.3 Mutation testing & Data management, add the following sentence: 
Remain DNA samples (if any) will be retested by Bio-rad droplet digital PCR retrospectively. 
Testing results and raw data will be transferred from central lab. 
In 8.5.3 Exploratory analysis, add the following sentence: 
The concordance, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV of EGFR mutation plasma testing by 
Bio-rad droplet digital PCR using other plasma tests or tissue test as reference will be 
calculated according to the similar formulas as above. The efficacy of patients who receive 
AZD9291 monotherapy and are T790M positive patient by each of the five platforms, 
respectively, will be analyzed same as above.  
 
In 5. STUDY ASSESSMENTS and 8.4 Outcome measures for analyses, add “and

Version 3.0 
Date 25 Aug 2017 
6 (56) 
Target subject population 
250 locally advanced or metastatic EGFR mutation positive NSCLC patients with progression 
on a previous EGFR-TKI will be recruited.  
Investigational product, dosage and mode of administration 
AZD9291 is an oral, potent, selective, irreversible inhibitor of both EGFR-TKI sensitizing and 
resistance mutations in NSCLC with a significant selectivity margin over wild-type EGFR. 
Patient who is positive in plasma T790M mutation test by any one of the four platforms and 
meet the eligibility criteria for treatment will receive AZD9291 monotherapy in ASTRIS 
study. 
AZD9291 will be administered orally as one 80 mg tablet once a day. 
Duration of treatment 
Patients may continue to receive AZD9291 as long as they continue to show clinical benefit, 
as judged by the investigator, and in the absence of discontinuation criteria (see section 3.11). 
The study will be closed in a maximum period of 18 months after the last patient is enrolled. 
Contingencies will be made to ensure continued drug supply for patients who are still deriving 
benefit from AZD9291 at that time. 
Statistical methods 
The concordance of T790M resistance mutation testing between the Cobas test and each of 
other platforms will be calculated. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV of each testing 
platform (Super-ARMS, digital PCR, and NGS) will be calculated with the Cobas test as the 
reference. The Kappa coefficient will be calculated to measure the agreement of T790M 
mutation testing between the Cobas test and each of other platforms. Descriptive statistics will 
be provided for all variables, as appropriate. Continuous variables will be summarized by the 
number of observations, mean, standard deviation, median, interquartile range (Q1, Q3), 
minimum, and maximum. Categorical variables will be summarized by frequency counts and 
percentages for each category.  The 95% confidence interval (CI) will be calculated as 
appropriate. PFS and OS, respectively, will be summarized using Kaplan-Meier estimates of 
the median time to event (progression and death) and quartiles together with their 95% 
confidence intervals.  
The chi-square test will be used to compare the sensitivity, specificity, and concordance 
between any of the two platforms using Cobas as reference testing in an exploratory manner.

INTRODUCTION 
1.1 
Background and rationale for conducting this study 
Somatic mutations in EGFR are detected approximately 30 to 40% of NSCLCs from Asian 
patients (Lynch et al., 2004; Paez et al., 2004; Shigematsu et al., 2005). EGFR-TKI has 
opened a new paradigm for the treatment of advanced NSCLC (aNSCLC). Several studies 
have shown that EGFR-TKI significantly improves PFS (Progression-Free Survival) and ORR 
(Objective response rate) compared with platinum-doublets in the first line treatment for 
aNSCLC harbouring activating EGFR mutations (Maemondo et al., 2010; Rosell et al., 2012; 
Sequist et al., 2013). 
However, patients ultimately develop acquired resistance to these agents with progression of 
disease after approximately 9 to 13 months (Engelman and Janne, 2008; Mok et al., 2009; Pao 
et al., 2005; Rosell et al., 2012). In approximately 60% of these patients, the mechanism of 
acquired resistance is the development of an additional EGFR mutation, EGFR T790M(Yu et 
al., 2013). One strategy to overcome this mechanism of resistance is through the use of 
irreversible EGFR inhibitors for second-line treatment (Kobayashi et al., 2005). Osimertinib 
(TAGRISSO, AZD9291) is a highly selective, irreversible 3rd generation of EGFR-TKI that 
targets both EGFR-TKI-sensitizing mutations (e.g., exon 19 deletion and L858R) and the 
T790M resistance mutation (Cross et al., 2014). Oral presentations about AZD9291 from 
AURA studies in 2016 ELCC showed that AZD9291 80 mg QD as first-line treatment for 
EGFR active mutation (mPFS 19.3m) aNSCLC patients and for pre-treated EGFR-TKI 
aNSCLC patients harbouring T790M-positive mutation are safe and effective (mPFS 9.7-
11.0m). In patients with NSCLC, especially who initially respond to EGFR-TKI therapy 
develop resistance, it is now recommended to obtain a biopsy in order to characterize the 
mechanism of resistance. However, in clinical practice, tumour tissue testing, in general, faces 
two challenges: specimens with limited tumour cells and tissue heterogeneity. Obtaining 
sufﬁcient tissue for mutation analysis in patients with advanced disease is challenging, as 
invasive interventions may be ineffective and unsafe. Moreover, detection of disease-relevant 
mutations from the biopsy of a single tumor lesion may not be reﬂective of the patient’s 
complete disease burden, especially in heterogeneous cancers (Fisher et al., 2013; Weber et al., 
2014). Therefore, molecular assays that detect secondary mutations without repeat invasive 
tissue biopsies are needed. 
In recent years, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has emerged as a speciﬁc and sensitive 
blood-based biomarker for detection of EGFR mutations. Several studies have demonstrated

that mutations, including the EGFR T790M mutation, detected in plasma ctDNA are highly 
concordant with those detected in tumor tissue in patients (Douillard et al., 2014a; Douillard et 
al., 2014b; Gevensleben et al., 2013; Punnoose et al., 2012). A new study shows that plasma 
EGFR T790M ctDNA status is associated with clinical outcome in aNSCLC patients with 
acquired EGFR-TKI resistance(Zheng et al., 2016), indicating that ctDNA as a liquid biopsy 
is a feasible and minimally invasive alternative to tissue biopsy. In addition, because ctDNA 
analysis does not involve formaldehyde ﬁxation, there is reduced frequency of a false positive 
result due to deamination (Denis et al., 2015). In general, plasma ctDNA testing has the 
potential to rapidly identify NSCLC patients suitable for targeted therapy and availability of 
these simple blood tests may streamline diagnosis, including for patients where tumor samples 
are unavailable. Therefore, sensitive, specific, reliable and fast mutation analysis platforms for 
plasma are needed in diagnosis of EGFR T790M for AZD9291 clinical development program 
including testing the acquired C797S mutation upon treatment with AZD9291 (Song et al., 
2016).  
There are several methodologies available for mutation analysis using ctDNA. However, since 
ctDNA often represents a small fraction (<1.0%) of total cfDNA (cell-free DNA), its detection 
remains challenging (Diaz and Bardelli, 2014) and the sensitivity is still an issue in various 
platforms. Direct sequencing approaches like Sanger sequencing or pyrosequencing are not 
suitable for detecting EGFR mutations using ctDNA on this account. Several different types 
of PCR-based assays have been explored for ctDNA genotyping including non-digital 
platforms and digital platforms. Non-digital PCR mainly include Roche Cobas and 
amplification-refractory mutation system (ARMS). Roche Cobas ® EGFR Mutation Test is 
the approved companion diagnostic for AZD9291. ARMS, also known as allele-specific 
polymerase chain reaction (ASPCR), is a reliable method for detecting single base mutations 
or small deletions which is based on the use of sequence-specific PCR primers (Newton et al., 
1989). Because Taq DNA polymerase is effective at distinguishing between a match and a 
mismatch at the 3’ end of a primer, specific mutated sequences are selectively amplified. 
Specific ARMS primers have been designed and optimized for detecting various EGFR 
mutations and have been widely used for ctDNA based assays.  
Digital platform mainly refers to digital polymerase chain reaction (digital PCR), which is a 
refinement of conventional PCR that can be used to directly quantify and clonally amplify 
nucleic acids (Pohl and Shih, 2004; Vogelstein and Kinzler, 1999). Digital PCR is widely used 
for many clinical applications in China due to its unparalleled sensitivity and precision. It is to 
amplify a single DNA template from minimally diluted samples and generate amplicons that 
are exclusively derived from one template. These amplicons can be detected with different

fluorophores or sequenced to distinguish different alleles. Thus, digital PCR transforms the 
exponential, analog nature of the conventional PCR into a linear, digital signal, suitable for 
statistical analysis. Digital PCR has been applied in quantification of EGFR mutants in 
clinical specimens, especially in dynamic monitoring of patients for the development of 
resistance mutations, providing a promising molecular diagnostic tool (Yung et al., 2009).  
The ability of Cobas, ARMS and digital PCR to detect EGFR mutations, including T790M, 
from ctDNA in aNSCLC was compared using a small number of samples in countries outside 
of China. For the T790M mutation, the digital platforms outperformed the non-digital 
platforms, and the Cobas® EGFR Mutation Test and BEAMing digital PCR demonstrated a 
high sensitivity for T790M (Thress et al., 2015). The feasibility of digital PCR was 
demonstrated in a recent study in monitoring EGFR mutation dynamics in serial plasma 
samples from NSCLC patients receiving TKI therapy and T790M can be detected in plasma 
ctDNA before and after PD as a poor prognostic factor (Zheng et al., 2016).  
In addition, next generation sequencing (NGS) has also been used in EGFR mutation testing 
in ctDNA, although there are also practical challenges to a successful implementation of NGS 
technologies for China clinical applications. In summary, a number of technologies have 
entered the market of T790M detection, with several types of equipment based on different 
molecular biological principles.  
To date, the Cobas® EGFR Mutation Test will be used to test the T790M resistance mutation 
in EGFR-TKI resistant patients in China for ASTRIS patient recruitment . Meanwhile 
alternative strategies are also being evaluated, namely EGFR mutation testing using plasma 
ctDNA. To this end, a comparison of multiple platforms for the detection of EGFR mutations 
in plasma ctDNA to identify technology that is more appropriate for use during AZD9291 
clinical development is needed.  
 
1.2 
Rationale for study design and doses  
Accurate identification of NSCLC patients carrying key molecular mutations is essential for 
delivering AZD9291 targeted therapies to those most likely to benefit. Detection of plasma 
ctDNA in a simple blood test offers a minimally invasive alternative to tumor tissue biopsy, 
and is already available for identifying patients suitable for treatment with Iressa. As reported 
in a recent study, the clinical response rate (ORR) and median PFS of AZD9291 monotherapy 
were similar in patients with T790M-positive plasma (ORR, 63%; PFS, 9.7 months) or 
T790M-positive tumor (ORR, 62%; PFS, 9.7 months) results (Oxnard et al., 2016). Because 

Clinical Study Protocol

Version 3.0 
Date 25 Aug 2017 
17 (56) 
different technology platforms data for T790M detection in blood is insufficient in China, we 
will compare the Chinese current available methods including Roche Cobas, Super-ARMS 
( ARMS used in blood test, provided by Amoy Diagnostics Co., Ltd.), digital PCR(Thermo 
Fisher QuantStudio3D digital PCR provided by Novogene Bioinformatics Technology Co. 
LTD) and Illumina NGS (provided by Guangzhou Burning Rock Medical Examination 
Institute Co., Ltd.) to obtain descriptive information of each platform and clinically validate 
the usage of these platforms in companion diagnostic for AZD9291. We hope to deliver the 
right treatment to the right patient based on scientific research, with updates from this 
pioneering plasma ctDNA trial. 
In addition, the potential to accurately quantify EGFR mutations in plasma from NSCLC 
patients would enable more rapid and more frequent analyses to assess disease status; however, 
the utility of such analyses for clinical purposes has only recently started to explore in China. 
In this study, we will try to use digital PCR and NGS to monitor EGFR mutations (C797S, 
reported acquired resistance to the 3rd generation of EGFR-TKIs, and T790M etc.) dynamics 
in serial plasma samples from NSCLC patients during AZD9291 treatment and get data about 
clinical response with relevant implications for patient management. We will also explore the 
acquired resistance to the 3rd generation of EGFR-TKIs by NGS testing of tissue samples 
from the collection at PD to compare with baseline and to investigate biomarker 
characteristics of long-term survival patients under AZD9291 treatment. 
Rationale for doses  
The selected AZD9291 starting dose of 80 mg is the recommended phase II dose , and the 
same dose of 80 mg AZD9291 is used in the phase III registration study. This is not the 
maximum tolerated dose (MTD) as AZD9291 was administered up to 240 mg daily with no 
dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) observed. 
1.3 
Benefit/risk and ethical assessment 
In this study, a minimally invasive alternative to tissue sample in diagnosis of T790M 
mutation will be used, namely plasma ctDNA will be tested by four methods (Roche Cobas, 
Super-ARMS, digital PCR and NGS), and patients with positive T790M mutation confirmed 
by any one of the platforms will receive AZD9291 treatment in ASTRIS studyif meet the 
eligibility criteria for treatment. Roche Cobas plasma test has already been approved as 
companion diagnostic for AZD9291, although the other three testing methods in plasma has 
not been approved yet. The key efficacy and safety findings from the clinical programme of 
AZD9291 are summarised below: 
x Patients with tumors harboring the T790M appeared to have improved responses 
(ORRs in these patients ranged from 66% to 71%) compared with responses in patients 
with tumors without the presence of T790M. The median duration of response

calculated as 9.6~12.5 months and the median PFS was 9.7~11.0 months for the 80 mg 
dose in patients with tumors harboring the T790M. (data cut-off date January 2016, 
2016ELCC).  
x The clinical response rate (ORR) and median PFS were similar in patients with 
T790M-positive plasma (ORR, 63%; PFS, 9.7 months) or T790M-positive tumor 
(ORR, 62%; PFS, 9.7 months) results(Oxnard et al., 2016). 
x The most commonly reported adverse events (AEs) were rash, diarrhoea, paronychia 
and dry skin.  The most common SAEs by System Organ Class (SOC) were 
respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, metabolism 
and nutrition disorders, and blood and lymphatic system disorders.  
Given the clinical activity noted to date with AZD9291, the acceptable safety profile 
demonstrated thus far, and the inclusion/exclusion criteria of treatment period stipulated in 
this study protocol, it is reasonable and appropriate to make AZD9291 available to patients 
with T790M positive (by plasma testing) NSCLC that no longer responding to previous 
EGFR-TKI.  
1.4 
Study Design  
This is an open-label, multi-center testing and treatment study in 250 locally advanced or 
metastatic NSCLC patients with documented EGFR sensitive mutation and progression on 
previous EGFR-TKI. T790M mutation in plasma ctDNA will be tested by four methods 
including Roche Cobas, Super-ARMS, digital PCR and NGS in order to evaluate the 
concordance of T790M testing in plasma between the Cobas test and each of other platforms 
as one of the primary endpoint.  
Patients who are T790M mutation positive in plasma test by any one of the four platforms and 
meet the eligibility criteria of treatment period will receive AZD9291 treatment in ASTRIS 
study. The other primary endpoint for this study is PFS (defined by RECIST v1.1), as assessed 
by the Investigator. Patients may continue to receive AZD9291 as long as they continue to 
show clinical benefit, as judged by the investigator, and in the absence of discontinuation 
criteria (see section 3.11). The sponsor will be assessing OS and ORR as a secondary endpoint.

Restrictions 
The following restrictions apply while the patient is receiving AZD9291 and for the specified 
times before and after: 
1. Female of child-bearing potential should use reliable methods of contraception from the 
time of screening until 6 weeks after discontinuing study treatment. Acceptable methods 
of contraception include total sexual abstinence, tubal ligation, hormonal contraceptives 
that are not prone to drug-drug interactions [IUS Levonorgestrel Intra Uterine System 
(Mirena), Medroxyprogesterone injections (Depo-Provera)], copper-banded intra-uterine 
devices and vasectomised partner. All hormonal methods of contraception should be used 
in combination with the use of a condom by their male sexual partner for intercourse.  
2. Male patients should be asked to use barrier contraceptives (i.e., by use of condoms) during 
sex with all partners during the trial and for a washout period of 4 months. Patients should 
avoid procreation for 6 months after completion of trial treatment. Patients should refrain 
from donating sperm from the start of dosing until 6 months after discontinuing study 
treatment. If male patients wish to father children they should be advised to arrange for 
freezing of sperm samples prior to the start of study treatment. 
3. If medically feasible, patients taking regular medication, with the exception of potent 
inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4 (see Appendix C to), should be maintained on it 
throughout the study period (30 days post-last dose).  Patients taking concomitant 
medications whose disposition is dependent upon CYP3A4 and breast cancer resistance 
protein and which have a narrow therapeutic index should be closely monitored for signs 
of changed tolerability as a result of increased exposure of the concomitant medication 
whilst receiving AZD9291.  Patients taking concomitant medications whose disposition is 
dependent upon CYP3A4, CYP1A2, CYP2C or p-glycoprotein and which have a narrow 
therapeutic index should be closely monitored for reduction in therapeutic activity as a 
result of the reduced exposure of the concomitant medication while receiving AZD9291.  
Guidance on medications to avoid, medications that require close monitoring and on 
washout periods is provided (see Appendix C). 
Up to 3-fold increase in exposure may occur in statin exposure when coadministered with 
AZD9291.  It is recommended that the starting and maintenance dose of statins should be 
as low as possible and should be guided by the statin prescribing information.  
Patients taking warfarin should be monitored regularly for changes in prothrombin time or 
international normalized ratio. 
4. Patients who wear contact lenses must discontinue wearing their lenses if they have any 
mild to moderate eye symptoms (CTCAE grade ≤2) while receiving treatment with 
AZD9291 until at least one week after symptoms have resolved.  If a patient has a 
recurrence of eye symptoms or experiences any severe (CTCAE grade ≥3) ocular events, 
they must discontinue wearing their contact lenses until at least one week after treatment 
with AZD9291 is permanently discontinued.  Patients must not use any eye drops or 
ointment for treatment of eye symptoms, unless agreed to by a study doctor, at any time

during the study until 1 week after AZD9291 has been permanently discontinued.  
Patients must consult their investigator promptly if they have any concerns.  
3.11 
Discontinuation of investigational product 
Subjects may be discontinued from AZD9291 treatment in the following situations: 
x The investigator thinks that it is in the patient’s best interest to stop therapy 
x Patient decision: the patient is at any time free to discontinue treatment, without 
prejudice to further treatment. 
x Confirmed diagnosis of ILD  
x Ulcerative ocular events  
x Other manifestation of unacceptable toxicity 
x Pregnancy 
x Patient incorrectly enrolled or treated on the study 
x Patient starts receiving additional anti-cancer therapy 
x Lost to follow up (unsuccessful contact with patient despite every effort made by 
investigator) 
x Termination of the study (see Sections 3.13 & 10.2.4) 
 
The patient or representative (e.g. caregiver, family member) must return all unused 
investigational product (IP). 
 
3.11.1 
Procedures for discontinuation of a subject from investigational product  
All reasons for discontinuation of treatment must be documented. Any subject who 
discontinues study treatment for reasons other than objective disease progression should have 
tumour assessments performed as scheduled in the protocol (serial plasma collection not 
required) until disease progression is documented or death occurs, unless consent is 
withdrawn.  
If a subject is withdrawn from study, see Section 3.12. 
3.12 
Criteria for withdrawal  
Patients are free to discontinue AZD9291 treatment or withdraw from the study without 
prejudice to further treatment.  
Reasons for withdrawal from the study: 
x Eligibility criteria not fulfilled 
x Death 
x Lost to follow up 
x Withdrawal of consent.

If a subject wishes to withdraw their consent to this study, it must be clear if the subject agrees 
to store their samples or destroy the remaining specimen (see section 5.7 for detail information 
on biological sample handling). 
 
If a subject wishes to withdraw their consent to both treatment and study assessments, they 
should be asked if they are willing to continue with survival follow-up (which can be 
conducted by telephone). If a subject wishes to withdraw their consent to further participation 
in the study entirely, including survival follow-up, this should be clearly documented in the 
subject notes and in the CRF.  
 
The status of ongoing, withdrawn (from the study) and “lost to follow-up” subjects at the time 
of an overall survival analysis should be obtained by the site personnel by checking the 
subjects notes, hospital records, contacting the subjects general practitioner and checking 
publicly available death registries. In the event that the subject has actively withdrawn consent 
to the processing of their personal data, the vital status of the subject can be obtained by site 
personnel from publicly available resources where it is possible to do so under applicable 
local laws. 
The withdrawal reasons must be documented and SAEs reported appropriately in the CRF.  If 
the patient agrees, the investigator must follow the patient for safety reasons until 30 days 
post-last dose, and then for survival status (and also for progression status if the subject had 
not progressed).  If patient declines, the investigator will separately follow up and manage any 
SAEs as a matter of clinical practice.  The patient or representative will return unused 
AZD9291 tablets.   
 
3.13 
Discontinuation of the study 
The study may be stopped if, in the judgment of AstraZeneca, trial subjects are placed at 
undue risk because of clinically significant findings that: 
x 
meet individual stopping criteria  or are otherwise considered significant  
x 
are assessed as causally related to study drug,  
x 
are not considered to be consistent with continuation of the study 
Patients withdrawing from the treatment prior to study closure will be followed up as part of 
this study. Regardless of the reason for termination, all data available for the subject at the 
time of discontinuation of follow-up must be recorded in the CRF.  
In terminating the study, AstraZeneca will ensure that adequate consideration is given to the 
protection of the subjects’ interests.

4.1 
Enrolment/screening period 
Procedures will be performed according to the Study Plan.  
At screening, consenting subjects are assessed to ensure that they meet eligibility criteria for 
testing period. Subjects who do not meet these criteria must not be enrolled in the study.  
The investigator will inform the patients about the study, AZD9291, the potential benefits and 
risks, AE reporting, as well as other information collected within the scope of the study.  
Subsequently, the investigator will obtain signed informed consent from the potential patient 
or legally acceptable representative, as appropriate per local regulations.  
All subjects will be required to provide consent to supply tissue and blood samples for entry 
into this study. This consent is included in the main subject informed consent form.  
Each patient will use a unique identifier assigned through the Interactive Voice Response 
System (IVRS)/ Interactive Web Response System (IWRS) of ASTRIS study in the following 
format SCCNN3XX: CC being the country code, NN being the centre number and 3XX being 
the subject enrolment code at the centre into the study.  
4.1.1 
Data collections 
Collected clinical information will include patient demographics (gender, age), Smoking 
history (non-smoker, ex-smoker and current smoker according to the status before AZD9291 
treatment), disease characteristics like clinical TNM staging, medical history, cancer treatment 
history, WHO Performance status, etc. Collected molecular diagnosis information will include 
detection platform, date of sampling & submission & examining report and mutation type, 
etc..  
4.1.2 
Sample collection 
Available plasma and re-biopsy tumor tissue samples (or cytological samples, pleural fluid 
etc., if tissue is not available) will be collected from patients who meet the eligibility criteria 
for testing period. Blood samples should be obtained following progression on a previous 
EGFR-TKI, but prior to dosing with AZD9291.  
The sample requirements for each detection platform and for the plasma AZD9291 testing are 
as follows. Total 27ml blood will be collected at enrollment visit. (details please see the 
laboratory manual).  
 
blood (ml) 
Cobas

FFPE tumor tissue samples (or cytological samples, pleural fluid etc.) will be collected at 
enrolment visit and at disease progression in sufficient amount (recommended 15 FFPE slices 
(needle biopsy) or 4 FFPE slices (surgical specimen), thickness 5um, tumor cells≥20%; or 
cytological samples like pleural fluid. Detail requirements please see the laboratory manual), 
and be tested by NGS to explore the mechanisms of acquired resistance in patients who 
received AZD9291 treatment.  
Blood for dynamic monitoring of EGFR mutations (T790M, C797S etc.) will be collected at 
each treatment visit (every 6 weeks), at radiographic progression and 6w after radiographic 
progression (if patient continue treatment as judged by investigator). These samples will be 
tested by digital PCR and NGS retrospectively according to the testing plan (Table 2, details 
please see the laboratory manual).  
Remain DNA samples (if any) will be retested by Bio-rad droplet digital PCR platform 
retrospectively for T790M and sensitizing mutations(if enough amount of samples) and data 
will be compared with testing results of other four platforms. For retrospective test on all the 
remain samples, patient who are still on AZD9291 treatment will be informed (or EC approve 
informed consent waiver); for patient who can't get in touch will apply informed consent 
waiver. But the investigator should review the medical record to see if the patient expressed 
any objection to use his/her remain samples for scientific research purpose. If such objection 
was recorded, then this patient’s remain samples should not be used. 
All samples must be well labelled. A case report form (CRF) will be provided to fill in testing 
related data, and necessary information must be recorded in CRF and checked before 
transportation.  
For the details about sample collection, label, record, package and transportation see the 
laboratory manual. 
4.1.3 
Mutation testing & Data management 
Tumor DNA will be isolated from FFPE specimens and ctDNA will be recovered from 
plasma samples. DNA isolated from tissue will be qualified by measuring the A260/280 and 
A260/230. T790M and other mutations in plasma will be tested by different platforms: Cobas, 
Super-ARMS, digital PCR and NGS at enrolment visit. Remain DNA samples (if any) will be 
retested by Bio-rad droplet digital PCR platform retrospectively. Testing results and raw data 
will be transferred from central lab.

The following information should be recorded in the CRF and database: Subject’s identity, 
EGFR mutation testing results (including quantitative results, if available), Sample 
information (including source of anatomical location and the date of collection), and etc. 
4.2 
Treatment period 
Patient visits (e.g. physical exam, laboratory tests, etc.) must be performed according to the 
institutional standard of care and investigator’s best medical judgment. AZD9291 re-supply 
must always be preceded by a treatment visit per Table 1.  
Additionally, at each visit: 
Drug accountability must be documented in the case report form (CRF) and 
necessary paper logs. 
Patient needs to be screened for reportable safety events outlined in Section 6. 
Tumour assessments (RECIST v1.1) described in Section 5 needs to be 
documented in the CRF. 
Investigators are required to assess the patient’s performance status and confirm 
that the patient continues to be deriving benefit from AZD9291 at the time of study 
drug re-supply. 
If a patient withdraws from the treatment and/or completely from the study, the 
investigator will record the reason for withdrawal. 
**Please note that if the reason for withdrawal is an event meeting the definition 
of SAE, it must be recorded in both the safety and clinical forms** 
For patients lost to follow-up, every reasonable effort must be made to establish 
the survival status and document this in the CRF. 
As an investigational drug, AZD9291 must be stored appropriately and dispensed from a 
secure storage area (or site pharmacy).  Study sites are required to maintain accountability 
logs for drug receipt, dispensation, destruction and return (as applicable per local regulations).   
AZD9291 may only be used for the specific patient enrolled into the study. 
4.3 
Follow-up period 
Patients must be followed through the designated follow-up period (30 days post last dose of 
AZD9291) to collect SAEs occurring during this period and other required reporting per 
Section 6 and follow-up on any ongoing SAEs.

STUDY ASSESSMENTS 
The Electronic Data Capture (EDC) system will be used for data collection and query 
handling. The investigator will ensure that data are recorded on the electronic Case Report 
Forms as specified in the study protocol and in accordance with the instructions provided. 
The investigator ensures the accuracy, completeness, and timeliness of the data recorded and 
of the provision of answers to data queries according to the Clinical Study Agreement. The 
investigator will sign the completed electronic Case Report Forms.  A copy of the completed 
electronic Case Report Forms will be archived at the study site. 
The sources of information for all study variables collected for this study will be patient 
medical records or charts and patients surveys. All data collected will be entered by the 
investigator into a CRF. All patients receiving AZD9291 treatment will be followed from 
enrolment until completion of the study, discontinuation of AZD9291 administration 
(determined by investigator due to adverse events, toxicities or other relevant reasons), 
discontinuation due to disease progression, or death, whichever occurs earlier. 
Study measures will be collected at baseline and during the follow-up period.  For each 
patient, physicians will be required to provide date of enrolment, and thereafter during the 
follow-up visits, the date and outcome of the more recent disease assessment, and date of 
progression and death (if applicable).  The variables described in the following sections will 
be collected to address the study objectives.  
The study measures that will be assessed among patients participating in this study are listed 
below:  
x Baseline demographic characteristics: patient characteristics including age, 
gender, race (if available or allowed by local regulations) will be collected 
x 
Smoking history non-smoker, ex-smoker and current smoker according to the status 
before AZD9291 treatment 
x T790M and sensitizing mutations results and type of test performed 
x Relevant Medical history: comorbidities and relevant medical history (this 
includes any chronic conditions currently requiring medication) 
x Disease characteristics: tumor histology, stage at diagnosis, current stage, time of 
progression, WHO performance status at study enrollment and subsequent follow-
up visits (“if patient will be followed)  
x Cancer treatment history: first-line therapy type (targeted or non-targeted) and 
agents received, start and end-dates, subsequent-lines type and start and end-date, 
radiation therapy (yes/no), surgery (yes/no) received prior to study enrollment must 
be documented 
 

Clinical Study Protocol

Study Code D5160C00042 
Version 3.0 
Date 25 Aug 2017 
35 (56) 
For patients that are T790M mutation plasma test positive and receive AZD9291 treatment, 
the following will be measured during follow up:  
x Physical examination: at baseline and at treatment discontinuation 
x Weight: at each visit 
x Visual test: at screening, a slit-lamp examination should be obtained. 
Ophthalmologic exams to be performed as clinically indicated. A 30-day follow-up 
assessment will be required if an on treatment assessment was abnormal at the time 
of discontinuation of study therapy, to confirm reversibility of the abnormality 
x Relevant Concomitant medication: in case of SAE and AEs.  
x AZD9291 dosing: starting dose, dose adjustments, dose interruptions, dose 
discontinuation and reason for any dose change. 
x Tumor assessment (RECIST v1.1): see section 5.1. 
x Progression follow-up: after study medication discontinuation for reasons other 
than disease progression, the patient will continue tumor assessments and the 
physicians will report related data in the CRF at each follow-up visit. 
x 
Survival status: patient survival status (dead, alive, unknown) at each follow-up must 
be documented in the CRF. The time from the date of first dose in the study until death 
will be used to evaluate OS. Lost to follow-up patients will be censored at last 
documented contact with patient status “alive”.  
x Laboratory assessments: laboratory parameters will not be collected. If done, 
they will be assessed by the investigator as normal or abnormal and details about 
abnormality will be entered in the CRF 
     If Subject negative for T790M mutation in plasma by all four platforms is T790M positive in tissue 
and then receives AZD9291 monotherapy, the subject will have RECISTv1.1 assessment every 6 
weeks (provided with free CT scan) and be followed for OS and data will be collected.  
5.1 
 Efficacy assessments 
The imaging modalities used for RECIST v1.1 assessments will be CT scan of the chest and 
abdomen (including liver and adrenal glands, ect.). The methods used at baseline for 
assessment of tumor burden (CT scan) must be used at each subsequent follow-up 
assessments. Any other sites where disease is suspected or known at baseline must also be 
imaged and additional sites of disease, confirmed at baseline not covered by the protocol 
specified anatomy, should be followed at the same scheduled visits as the other RECIST 
assessments.  
For Investigator assessment, RECIST v1.1 criteria will be used to assess each patient's tumor 
response to treatment and allow calculation of PFS and ORR. The RECIST v1.1 guidelines for 
measurable, non-measurable, target and non-target lesions, and the objective tumor response 
criteria (complete response [CR], partial response [PR], stable disease [SD], or progression of 
disease [PD]) are presented in Appendix B.

Biomarker analysis  
The subject’s consent to the use of donated biological samples is mandatory.   
According to the study plan, biological samples (tumour samples and plasma samples) will be 
collected and may be analysed for EGFR mutations (T790M, C797S etc.) and other 
exploratory biomarkers to assess correlations with disease activity, effects of study drug, and 
clinical outcomes. 
5.7.1 
Storage, re-use and destruction of biological samples 
Samples will be stored until the end of the study, after which they will be returned to hospital 
sites as required or destroyed. The results of this biomarker research will be reported either in 
the Clinical Study Report itself or as an addendum, or separately in a scientific report or 
publication. The results of this biomarker research may be pooled with biomarker data from 
other studies with the study drug to generate hypotheses to be tested in future research that 
agreed by study steering committee. 
5.7.2 
Labelling and shipment of biological samples 
The Principal Investigator ensures that samples are labelled and shipped in accordance with 
the Laboratory Manual. 
5.7.3 
Chain of custody of biological samples  
A full chain of custody is maintained for all samples throughout their lifecycle. 
The Principal Investigator at each centre keeps full traceability of collected biological samples 
from the subjects while in storage at the centre until shipment or disposal (where appropriate) 
and keeps documentation of receipt of arrival.

The sample receiver keeps full traceability of the samples while in storage and during use until 
used or disposed of or until further shipment and keeps documentation of receipt of arrival. 
AstraZeneca keeps oversight of the entire life cycle through internal procedures, monitoring of 
study sites and auditing of external laboratory providers. 
5.7.4 
Withdrawal of Informed Consent  
If a subject withdraws consent, it must be clear if the subject agrees to store their samples or 
destroy the remaining specimen, and the action should be documented. If samples are already 
analysed, AstraZeneca is not obliged to destroy the results of this research. 
As collection of the biological samples at enrolment visit is an integral part of the study, then 
the subject is withdrawn from further study participation. 
The Principal Investigator: 
x 
Ensures subjects’ withdrawal of informed consent is notified immediately 
to AstraZeneca 
x 
Ensures that biological samples from that subject, if stored at the study 
site, are immediately identified, disposed of /destroyed, and the action 
documented 
x 
Ensures the laboratories holding the samples is/are informed about the 
withdrawn consent immediately and that samples are disposed 
of/destroyed, the action documented and the signed document returned to 
the study site 
x 
Ensures that the subject and AstraZeneca are informed about the sample 
disposal. 
AstraZeneca ensures the central laboratories holding the samples is/are informed about the 
withdrawn consent immediately and that samples are disposed of/destroyed and the action 
documented and returned to the study site.

SAFETY REPORTING AND MEDICAL MANAGEMENT 
The Principal Investigator is responsible for ensuring that all staff involved in the study are 
familiar with the content of this section. 
6.1 
Definition of adverse events 
An adverse event is the development of an undesirable medical condition or the deterioration 
of a pre-existing medical condition following or during exposure to a pharmaceutical product, 
whether or not considered causally related to the product.  An undesirable medical condition 

Clinical Study Protocol 
Drug Substance AZD9291  
Study Code D5160C00042 
Version 3.0 
Date 25 Aug 2017 
38 (56) 
can be symptoms (e.g., nausea, chest pain), signs (e.g., tachycardia, enlarged liver) or the 
abnormal results of an investigation (e.g., laboratory findings, electrocardiogram).   
6.2 
Definitions of serious adverse event 
An SAE is an event occurring from the time the patient signs informed consent (as per local 
regulations) through the end of the post-treatment follow-up visit (30 days post-last dose) or 
until disease progression, whichever is the latest, which fulfils one or more of the following 
criteria: 
x Results in death 
x Is immediately life-threatening 
x Requires in-patient hospitalisation or prolongation of existing hospitalisation  
x Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity or substantial disruption of the 
ability to conduct normal life functions 
x Is a congenital abnormality or birth defect 
x Is an important medical event that may jeopardise the subject or may require medical 
intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above. 
For further guidance on the definition of an SAE, see Appendix A to the study protocol. 
6.2.1 
Handling of deaths 
All deaths that occur during the study or within the follow-up period after the administration 
of the last dose of AZD9291 (30 days post-last dose) or until disease progression, whichever 
is the latest, must be reported as follows: 
- 
Death, which is unequivocally due to disease progression, must be reported to the study 
representative and must be documented in the CRF, but must not be reported as an SAE during the 
study. 
- 
Where death is not clearly due to progression of the disease being treated as part of the study, the 
primary and most likely event causing the death must be reported to AstraZeneca’s representative 
as an SAE within 24 hours.  The report must contain a comment regarding the co-involvement of 
progression of disease, if appropriate, and must assign a single primary cause of death together 
with any contributory causes. 
- 
Deaths with an unknown cause must always be reported as an SAE but every effort should be 
made to establish a cause of death.  A post-mortem may be helpful in the assessment of the cause 
of death, and if performed a copy of the post-mortem results must be reported in an expedited 
fashion to an AstraZeneca representative within the usual timeframes.

6.2.2 
Hy’s Law 
Cases where a subject shows an AST or ALT ≥3xULN or total bilirubin ≥2xULN may need to 
be reported as SAEs.  The investigator is responsible for, without delay, determining whether 
a subject meets potential Hy’s law (PHL) criteria. Details of identification of PHL cases and 
actions to take are detailed in Appendix D. Those SAE will be collected until 30 days post last 
dose of study medication. 
6.3 
SAEs related to study procedures or conduct of a study 
An SAE related to a study procedure is considered as a SAE that has arisen as a direct 
consequence of the subject participating in the study, for any reason other than due to receipt 
of an Investigational Medicinal Products (IMP). 
6.4 
Recording of adverse events 
6.4.1 
Time period for collection of adverse events 
Adverse Events, including Serious Adverse Events, will be collected from time of signature of 
informed consent, throughout the treatment period and up to and including the 30-day follow 
up period*.  All ongoing and any new AEs/SAEs identified during the 30 calendar days 
follow up period after last dose of study medication must be followed to resolution. After any 
interim analysis, any ongoing AEs/SAEs need to be unlocked and followed for resolution.  
*Exception: all AEs/SAEs has reported in ASTRIS main study should not be reported in 
current study. 
6.4.2 
Follow-up of unresolved adverse events 
Any AEs that are unresolved at the time of the 30 day follow-up, must be followed up by the 
investigator through to resolution, and whilst the database is open should be recorded on the 
database.  
AstraZeneca retains the right to request additional information for any patient with ongoing 
AE(s)/SAE(s) at the end of the study, if judged necessary. 
6.4.3 
Adverse events after the 30 day follow-up period 
At any time after a patient has completed the study, if an investigator learns of any SAE 
including death, and he/she considers there is a reasonable possibility that the event is causally 
related to the investigational product, the investigator should notify AstraZeneca, Patient 
Safety.  
If patients who are gaining clinical benefit are allowed to continue study treatment post data 
cut-off and/or post study completion then all SAEs must continue to be collected and reported 
to Patient Safety within the usual timeframe. 
Otherwise after study treatment completion (i.e. after any scheduled post treatment follow-up 
period has ended), there is no obligation to actively report information on new AEs or SAEs

followed up for survival but who have completed the post treatment follow-up period (30 
days). 
6.4.4 
Causality collection 
The investigator will assess causal relationship between Investigational Product and each 
Adverse Event, and answer ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to the question ‘Do you consider that there is a 
reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the investigational product?’ 
For SAEs causal relationship will also be assessed for other medication and study procedures.  
Note that for SAEs that could be associated with any study procedure the causal relationship is 
implied as ‘yes’.  
6.5 
Reporting of serious adverse events 
If any SAE occurs in the course of the study, then investigators or other site personnel inform 
the appropriate AstraZeneca representatives immediately, but no later than 24 hours of when 
he or she becomes aware of it. 
For fatal or life-threatening adverse events where important or relevant information is missing, 
active follow-up is undertaken immediately.  Investigators or other site personnel inform 
AstraZeneca representatives of any follow-up information on a previously reported SAE 
within one calendar day i.e., immediately but no later than 24 hours of when he or she 
becomes aware of it.

Management of toxicities related to AZD9291 
If a patient experiences a CTCAE grade 3 or higher and/or unacceptable toxicity (any grade), 
where the investigator considers the event of concern to be specifically associated with 
AZD9291 (and not attributable to the disease or disease-related processes for which patient is 
being treated), dosing will be interrupted and supportive therapy administered as required in 
accordance with local practice/guidelines.   
If the toxicity resolves or reverts to CTCAE grade ≤ 2 within 3 weeks of onset, treatment with 
AZD9291 may be restarted at the same dose (80 mg, daily) or a lower dose (40 mg, daily) 
using the rules below for dose modifications(Table 1) as per the investigator’s evaluation 
and/or in discussion and agreement with the study Medical Monitor as needed.  There will be 

Clinical Study Protocol

no individual modifications to dosing schedule in response to toxicity, only potential dose 
reduction or dose interruption.  Once a dose reduction is implemented, the dose of AZD9291 
cannot be reverted back to 80 mg. 
If the toxicity does not resolve to CTCAE grade ≤ 2 after 3 weeks, then the patient must be 
withdrawn from the study treatment and kept in observation until resolution of the toxicity. 
Table 3 
Dose Interventions 
Intervention 
AZD9291 Dose 
Starting Dose 
80 mg daily 
Reduced Dose 
40 mg daily 
 
If an event subsequently requires dose interruption, AZD9291 may restart at the same dose or 
the reduced dose, on resolution/improvement of the event at the discretion of the investigator. 
6.6.1 
Pulmonary Symptoms  
If new or worsening pulmonary symptoms (e.g., dyspnea) or radiological abnormality 
suggestive of interstitial lung disease are observed, the administration of AZD9291 needs to 
be interrupted and the study Medical Monitor must be informed.  It is strongly recommended 
to perform a full diagnostic workup, to exclude alternative causes such as lymphangitic 
carcinomatosis, infection, allergy, cardiogenic edema, or pulmonary hemorrhage.  The results 
of the full diagnostic workup (including high-resolution computed tomography, blood and 
sputum culture, haematological parameters) will be recorded in the CRF by the investigator.  
Where ILD is suspected, local practice must be followed in discussion with the study Medical 
Monitor.  In the absence of a confirmed diagnosis of ILD, AZD9291 may be restarted 
following consultation with the study Medical Monitor.  In case of a confirmed diagnosis of 
ILD, AZD9291 must be permanently discontinued. (refer to “Guidance for the Management 
of AE in studies using 80mg AZD9291”) 
6.6.2 
QTc Prolongation (using Fredericia’s formula –QTcF–)  
Patients with Grade 3 QTcF with QTcF prolongation (i.e., confirmed QTcF prolongation to > 
500 ms absolute or a > 60 ms increase from baseline) should have AZD9291 interrupted and 
regular ECGs performed until resolution to baseline.  If the QTcF interval resolves to Grade 1 
(<481 msec), AZD9291 may be restarted at the reduced dose of 40 mg.  If the QT 
prolongation does not resolve to ≤CTCAE grade 1 (<481 msec) after 3 weeks, then the patient 
will be permanently withdrawn from AZD9291 and observed until resolution of the toxicity.  
All QTcF prolongation of >470 ms at any point during the study must be reported to 
AstraZeneca, and ECGs sent to the Study Team for further analysis.  This does not alter the 
management guidance outlined above.

The tablets can be taken with or without food and should be swallowed whole with water. The 
tablet should not be crushed, split or chewed.  
If the patient is unable to swallow the tablet, it may first be dispersed in 50 mL of non-
carbonated water. The tablet should be dropped in the water, without crushing, stirred until 
dispersed and immediately swallowed. An additional half a glass of water should be added to 
ensure that no residue remains and then immediately swallowed. 
If administration via nasogastric tube is required, the same process as above should be 
followed but using volumes of 15 mL for the initial dispersion and 10 mL for the residue 
rinses. The total liquid should be administered as per the nasogastric tube instructions with 
appropriate water flushes. 
The initial dose of AZD9291 80 mg daily can be reduced to 40 mg once daily under 
circumstances described in Section6.7.   
Doses should be taken approximately 24 hours apart at the same time point each day.  Doses 
should not be missed.  If a patient misses taking a scheduled dose, within a window of 
12 hours, it is acceptable to take the dose.  If it is more than 12 hours after the scheduled dose 
time, the missed dose must not be taken, and patients must be instructed to take the next dose 
at the next scheduled time.  If a patient vomits after taking their AZD9291 treatment, they 
must not make up for this dose, but must take the next scheduled dose. 
Any change from dosing schedule, dose interruptions, or dose reductions must be recorded in 
the CRF.   
Tablets will be packed in high-density polyethylene bottles with child-resistant closures.  
Bottles will be dispensed to patients in the packaging provided.  The packaging includes 
bottles, caps and a label. Bottle tampers must not be broken prior to dispensing AZD9291 to a 
patient.

Definitions of analysis sets 
The full analysis set (FAS) will contain all patients who are eligible for the study and have any 
valid data of T790M mutation status. The FAS will be used for the analysis of biomarker data 
and others collected at screening visit.  
The As-treated analysis set will contain all patients who take at least one dose of AZD9291. It 
will be used for the analysis of data collected during treatment and follow up period.  
8.4 
Outcome measures for analyses 
Analysis will be conducted to evaluate the following as available in the CRF and database: 
x Baseline characteristics: demographics, relevant medical history, disease 
characteristics, cancer treatment history, smoking history.

x T790M and sensitizing mutations plasma testing results by Cobas, Super-ARMS, 
digital PCR, and NGS  
x T790M and sensitizing mutations tissue (or cytological samples, pleural fluid etc.) 
testing results (if available) 
x Exposure to AZD9291 
x Overall Survival (OS):  
Overall survival is defined as the time from the date of first dose of AZD9291 in this 
study until death due to any cause. Any subject not known to have died at the time of 
analysis will be censored at the last recorded date on which the subject was known to 
be alive. 
x Progression Free Survival (PFS): 
PFS is defined as the time from first dose of AZD9291 in this study until the date of 
disease progression as recorded in CRF or death (by any cause in the absence of 
progression) regardless of whether the subject withdraws from therapy or receives 
another anti-cancer therapy prior to progression. Subjects who have not progressed or 
died at the time of analysis will be censored at the time of the latest date of assessment. 
(or, if no tumor assessments are performed after the baseline visit, at the date of 
baseline visit). 
x Objective Response Rate漡Objective Response Rate is defined as the number (%) of 
patients with measurable disease with at least 1 visit response of CR or PR. Data 
obtained until progression or last evaluable assessment in the absence of progression 
will be included in the assessment of ORR. However, any CR or PR which occurred 
after a further anti-cancer therapy will not be included in the numerator for the ORR 
calculation (where the As-treated analysis set will be the denominator). 
x Percentages of EGFR mutations (C797S and T790M etc., respectively) at different 
time point by NGS and digital PCR, respectively, during dynamic monitoring. 
x Distribution of NGS testing results (contain 295 genes) at baseline and at PD. 
 
8.5 
Methods for statistical analyses 
All data will be presented for the full analysis set. The concordance of T790M resistance 
mutation testing between the Cobas test and each of other platforms will be calculated. The 
Kappa coefficient will also be calculated to measure the agreement. The sensitivity, specificity, 
positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of each testing platform (Super-
ARMS, digital PCR, and NGS) will be calculated with the Cobas test as the reference.  
Descriptive statistics will be used for all variables, as appropriate.  Continuous variables will 
be summarized by the number of observations, mean, standard deviation, median, interquartile

range (Q1, Q3), minimum, and maximum. Categorical variables will be summarized by 
frequency counts and percentages for each category.  The 95% confidence interval (CI) will 
be calculated as appropriate. PFS and OS, respectively, will be summarized using Kaplan-
Meier estimates of the median time to event (progression and death) and quartiles together 
with their 95% confidence intervals. The chi-square test will be used to compare the 
sensitivity, specificity, and concordance between any of the two platforms using Cobas as 
reference testing. 
8.5.1 
Analysis of the primary variable (s) 
The concordance of T790M resistance mutation testing between the Cobas test and each of 
other platforms (Spuer-ARMS/digital PCR/NGS). It will be calculated according to the 
following formula: 
Concordance (%)=(number of patients with same T790M mutation status based on 
Cobas and each other platform)/(total number of patients in the FAS with evaluable 
testing results) ×100%. 
PFS will be summarized using Kaplan-Meier (KM) estimates of the median time to 
progression or death and quartiles together with their 95% confidence intervals. KM estimates 
of PFS rate at appropriate time points (to be defined in SAP) will be presented as well. Plot of 
the KM PFS curve will be produced. 
8.5.2 
Analysis of the secondary variable(s) 
The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value of Super-
ARMS/digital PCR/NGS will be calculated according to the following formulae by using 
Cobas as the reference: 
Sensitivity (%)=(number of patients with T790M mutation positive based on Cobas 
and each other platform)/(number of patients with T790M mutation positive based on 
Cobas) ×100% 
Specificity (%)=(number of patients with T790M mutation negative based on Cobas 
and each other platform)/(number of patients with T790M mutation negative based on 
Cobas) ×100% 
Positive predictive value (%)=(number of patients with T790M mutation positive 
based on Cobas and each other platform)/(number of patients with T790M mutation 
positive based on each other platform) ×100% 
Negative predictive value (%)=(number of patients with T790M mutation negative 
based on Cobas and each other platform)/(number of patients with T790M mutation 
negative based on each other platform) ×100%

The chi-square test will be used to compare the concordance, sensitivity, and specificity 
between any of the two platforms using Cobas as reference testing in an exploratory manner. 
OS will be summarized using Kaplan-Meier estimates of the median time to death and 
quartiles together with their 95% confidence intervals. KM estimates of OS rate at appropriate 
time points (to be defined in SAP) will be presented as well. Plot of the KM overall survival 
curve will be produced. 
ORR will be summarized with frequency counts and percentages for each category. The 95% 
CI will be provided as appropriate.  
 
8.5.3 
Exploratory analysis  
The proportion of patients with each EGFR mutation (C797S and T790M etc.) as well as other 
genetic and proteomic markers at different time point will be calculated as each EGFR 
mutation or marker divided by total number of patients with evaluable testing results. The data 
will be presented for the overall population (i.e., As-treated analysis set) as well as by 
subgroups such as short-term and long-term survivors.  
- Long-term survivors group (case): EGFR M+ aNSCLC patients who continuously received 
AZD9291 for at least 18 months without evidence of PD 
- Rapid PD group (control): EGFR M+ aNSCLC patients who had undergone PD after AZD9291 
treatment≤3 months  
Testing data of cytological samples (if collected) may be analyzed either separately or 
together with tissue samples. Data of clinical outcomes (ORR, PFS and OS) will be 
described separately for subjects that are negative for T790M mutation in plasma by all 
four platforms but positive in tissue and then receive AZD9291 monotherapy. The 
concordance, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV of EGFR mutation plasma testing by Bio-
rad droplet digital PCR using other plasma tests or tissue test as reference will be 
calculated according to the similar formulas as above. The efficacy of patients who receive 
AZD9291 monotherapy and are T790M positive patient by each of the five platforms, 
respectively, will be analyzed same as above. Details will be specified in SAP.  
8.5.4 
Analysis timing 
Four analyses are planned: 
x The primary analysis of T790M testing concordance of four platforms and other 
testing data at enrollment visit will be conducted after the last patient is enrolled. 
x The primary analysis of PFS data will be conducted after 12-month follow up of the 
last enrolled patients, assuming that 60% of the patients who receive AZD9291 will 
have disease progression or death at this time.

10.4 
Informed consent 
The Principal Investigator(s) at each centre will: 
x 
Ensure each subject is given full and adequate oral and written 
information about the nature, purpose, possible risk and benefit of the 
study 
x 
Ensure each subject is notified that they are free to discontinue from the 
study at any time 
x 
Ensure that each subject is given the opportunity to ask questions and 
allowed time to consider the information provided 
x 
Ensure each subject provides signed and dated informed consent before 
conducting any procedure specifically for the study 
x 
Ensure the original, signed Informed Consent Form(s) is/are stored in the 
Investigator’s Study File 
x 
Ensure a copy of the signed Informed Consent Form is given to the 
subject 
x 
Ensure that any incentives for subjects who participate in the study as 
well as any provisions for subjects harmed as a consequence of study 
participation are described in the informed consent form that is approved 
by an Ethics Committee. 
10.5 
Changes to the protocol and informed consent form 
Study procedures will not be changed without the mutual agreement of the Principal 
Investigator and AstraZeneca. 

Clinical Study Protocol 
Drug Substance AZD9291  
Study Code D5160C00042 
Version 3.0 
Date 25 Aug 2017 
53 (56) 
If there are any substantial changes to the study protocol, then these changes will be 
documented in a study protocol amendment and where required in a new version of the study 
protocol (Revised Clinical Study Protocol). 
The amendment is to be approved by the relevant Ethics Committee before implementation.  
Local requirements are to be followed for revised protocols. 
AstraZeneca or its representative will distribute any subsequent amendments and new versions 
of the protocol to each Principal Investigator(s). For distribution to Ethics Committee see 
Section 10.3. 
If a protocol amendment requires a change to a centre’s Informed Consent Form, AstraZeneca 
and the centre’s Ethics Committee are to approve the revised Informed Consent Form before 
the revised form is used.  
If local regulations require, any administrative change will be communicated to or approved 
by each Ethics Committee. 
10.6 
Audits and inspections 
Authorised representatives of AstraZeneca, a regulatory authority, or an Ethics Committee 
may perform audits or inspections at the centre, including source data verification.  The 
purpose of an audit or inspection is to systematically and independently examine all study-
related activities and documents, to determine whether these activities were conducted, and 
data were recorded, analysed, and accurately reported according to the protocol, Good Clinical 
Practice (GCP), guidelines of the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH), and any 
applicable regulatory requirements.  The Investigator will contact AstraZeneca immediately if 
contacted by a regulatory agency about an inspection at the centre.
