to evaluate the efficacy/safety of osimertinib prior to crt and maintenance of it with stage iii, unresectable nsclc with egfr mutations

Conditions: Lung Cancer

Summary: the purpose of this study is to measure efficacy and safety of osimertinib as induction therapy prior to curative intent crt and maintenance osimertinib in adult patients with stage iii, unresectable nsclc with common egfr mutations (exon 19 deletion or l858r).

the study duration will be approximately 2 years for recruitment and 2 years of follow-up from the last patient's initiation into the study. the induction treatment with osimertinib will be up to 8 weeks, followed by 6 weeks of crt treatment and osimertinib maintenance treatment until pd or death. the visit frequency will be every 2 weeks to 4 weeks during the induction treatment period, every 3 weeks during the crt period (every 3 weeks for chemotherapy and daily visits for rt), and every 12 weeks during the osimertinib maintenance treatment period.

prophylaxis for 2-4 weeks prior to study treatment or * positive for hbsag, but for \> 6 months have had transaminases levels below uln and hbv dna levels below \<100 iu/ml (i.e., are in an inactive carrier state). in addition, patients must be receiving anti-viral prophylaxis for 2-4 weeks prior to study treatment. 6. patients with hiv are only eligible for inclusion if they meet all the following criteria: * demonstrate absence of hbv/ hcv co-infection * undetectable viral rna load for 6 months * cd4+ count of \>350 cells/μl * no history of aids-defining opportunistic infection

mutations known to be associated with egfr-tki sensitivity (ex19del, l858r), either alone or in combination with other egfr mutations including de novo t790m 8. who performance status of 0 or 1 with no deterioration over the previous 2 weeks prior to baseline at screening and prior to first dose. 9. minimum life expectancy of \> 12 weeks at day 1. 10. at least one lesion that can be accurately measured at baseline as ≥ 10 mm in the longest diameter (except lymph nodes, which must have short axis ≥ 15 mm) with ct or mri and is suitable for accurate repeated measurements. 11. male and/or female. contraceptive use by males or females should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies and/or soc crt 12. capable of giving signed informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the icf and in this csp. 13. provision of signed and dated written optional genomics initiative research information and consent form prior to collection of samples for optional genomics initiative research that supports the genomic initiative. note: if a patient declines to participate in optional genetic research, there will be no penalty or loss of benefit to the patient, and he/she will not be excluded from other aspects of the study. exclusion criteria: 1. any presence of small cell and mixed small-cell and non-small cell histology. 2. past medical history of ild/pneumonitis, drug-induced ild, radiation pneumonitis that required steroid treatment, or any evidence of clinically active ild/pneumonitis. 3. any unresolved toxicities from prior therapy greater than ctcae grade 1 at the time of starting study treatment with the exception of alopecia and grade 2 prior platinum-therapy related neuropathy. patients with irreversible toxicity that is not reasonably expected to be exacerbated by study intervention in the opinion of the investigator may be included after consultation with the astrazeneca medical monitor (eg, hearing loss). 4. any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic diseases, including uncontrolled hypertension and active bleeding diatheses, which in the investigator's opinion makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the trial or which would jeopardise compliance with the protocol, or active infection (eg, patients receiving treatment for infection, including hcv, hiv, and tuberculosis) or active uncontrolled hbv infection. 5. refractory nausea and vomiting, chronic gastrointestinal diseases, inability to swallow the formulated product or previous significant bowel resection that would preclude adequate absorption of osimertinib. 6. history of another primary malignancy except for malignancy treated with curative intent with no known active disease ≥ 2 years before the first dose of study intervention and of low potential risk for recurrence. exceptions include adequately resected non-melanoma skin cancer and curatively treated in situ disease. patients who have received rt with overlapping fields (eg, cured breast cancer) should be excluded. 7. patient meets any of
