Combining Befotertinib with Bevacizumab or Chemotherapy for Lung Cancer Treatment
Official title: Neoadjuvant Befotertinib Combined Bevacizumab or Platinum-based Double Chemotherapy for Resectable Locally-advanced EGFR Mutation-positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: a Single-center, Randomized Controlled Trial
Run by Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital, Shanghai, China · NCT06755684 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing if a new lung cancer treatment combining befotertinib with either bevacizumab or chemotherapy can help patients with early-stage cancer that has an EGFR mutation feel better before surgery.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18-75 with resectable stage II-IIIA NSCLC and confirmed EGFR sensitive mutations.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with systemic metastasis or those who do not meet the eligibility criteria will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This clinical trial investigates the effectiveness of befotertinib, an EGFR-TKI, in combination with either bevacizumab or platinum-based double chemotherapy for patients with resectable stage II-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has an EGFR mutation. The study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of these combinations prior to surgical intervention. Eligible participants will undergo various imaging tests to confirm their cancer stage and ensure they do not have systemic metastasis. The trial focuses on patients who are capable of tolerating surgery and have measurable tumor foci.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could improve surgical outcomes and overall survival rates for patients with advanced EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promising results with similar combinations of targeted therapies and chemotherapy in treating NSCLC, indicating potential for success.
