Using Icotinib with chemotherapy before surgery for lung cancer patients
Official title: A Phase II, Single-Arm, Prospective Study of Neoadjuvant Icotinib With Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Patients With Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Mutation Positive, Resectable for Stage II to IIIB(N2) Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Run by Peking University Cancer Hospital & Institute · NCT05104788 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing if adding Icotinib to chemotherapy can help lung cancer patients with certain mutations feel better and have better surgery outcomes before their operation.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with resectable stage IIA to IIIB non-small cell lung cancer and confirmed EGFR mutations.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with non-resectable lung cancer or those without the specific EGFR mutations may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This Phase II clinical trial investigates the use of Icotinib in combination with chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant treatment for patients with resectable, EGFR mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study aims to assess the efficacy of this treatment approach in patients with stage IIA to IIIB NSCLC, who are eligible for surgical resection. Participants will receive Icotinib along with standard chemotherapy agents, including Cisplatin, Carboplatin, and Pemetrexed, prior to surgery. The trial is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this combination therapy in improving surgical outcomes.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could improve surgical outcomes and overall survival for patients with EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promising results with similar neoadjuvant approaches using targeted therapies in lung cancer, indicating potential for success.

All other female patients (including female patients with tubal ligations) are considered to be of childbearing potential. * Male subjects must be willing to use barrier contraception Exclusion Criteria: * Mixed squamous cell carcinoma, large cell carcinoma,small cell lung cancer. * Prior treatment with any systemic anti-cancer therapy for NSCLC including chemotherapy, biologic therapy, immunotherapy, or any investigational drug. * Pregnant female patients; breastfeeding female patients. * Current use of (or unable to stop use prior to receiving the first dose of study treatment) medications or herbal supplements known to be strong inducers of Cytochrome P450 3A4(CYP3A4)(at least 3 weeks prior). * Evidence of any severe or uncontrolled systemic disease, including uncontrolled hypertension and active bleeding, that the investigator considers to be detrimental to patient participation in the study or to adherence to the protocol. Active and clinically significant bacterial, fungal, or viral infection including hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) (e.g., in case of known HBsAg or HCV antibody positivity), known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related illness. * Clinically significant cardiovascular disease, that is, active or within 3 months prior to enrollment: cerebral vascular accident/stroke, myocardial infarction, unstable angina,congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Classification Class ≥ II), second-degree or third-degree Atrioventricular(AV)block (unless paced) or any AV block with PR \>220 msec; or ongoing cardiac dysrhythmias of NCI CTCAE Grade ≥ 2, uncontrolled atrial fibrillation of any grade, bradycardia defined as \<50 bpm (unless patient is otherwise healthy such as long-distance runners, etc.), machine-read ECG with QTc(corrected QT interval) \>470 msec, or congenital long QT syndrome. * A history of hypersensitivity to Icotinib with or without active excipients or to drugs of similar chemical structure or class, and uncontrollable nausea and vomiting, chronic gastrointestinal disease, inability to swallow formulated drugs, or having undergone major bowel resection that would interfere with adequate absorption of Icotinib. * Past medical history of Interstitial lung disease( ILD), drug-induced ILD, radiation pneumonitis which required steroid treatment, or any evidence of clinically active ILD. * Inadequate bone marrow reserve (a leukocyte count less than 4000 mm3, a platelet count less than 100,000 mm3, and a hemoglobin level less than 10 g/dL); adequate renal function deficiency(not normal serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels, and a creatinine clearance level 60 mg/minute); and an inadequate serum aspartate aminotransferase level more than 2.5 times the upper normal limit (UNL) and a serum alanine aminotransferase level more than 2.5 times the UNL.
