About this study
Official title: AFAMOSI: Prospective, Randomized, Multicenter Phase IV Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Afatinib Followed by Osimertinib Compared to Osimertinib in Patients with EGFRmutated/T790M Mutation Negative Non-squamous NSCLC in the First-line Setting
This randomized, open label Phase IV trial will be performed in patients with a diagnosis of advanced NSCLC (non-squamous cell histology), harboring EGFR mutation positive but T790M Mutation negative, who have no previous chemotherapy for metastatic NSCLC. Neoadjuvant or adjuvant systemic treatments had to be finished at least (≥) 6 months before study inclusion. In conclusion, this study is investigating the important clinical question whether tumor growth and long term overall survival for a patient is better controlled in a specific treatment sequence of different EGFR-inhibitors. Patients will be treated with registered compounds according to their label in both treatment arms. Thus, all patients will get an effective treatment regimen and patients who progressed on afatinib, and who developed a T790M mutation will be treated subsequently with osimertinib. Those who progressed under osimertinib or under afatinib without T790M mutation will be treated according to the current treatment guidelines with Investigator´s choice of active therapy (ICT) including but not limited to platin doublet chemotherapy.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Afatinib and Osimertinib in people with Non-squamous NSCLC, run by Michael Hopp at 11 sites in Germany.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 25 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 11 sites in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Time to EGFR-TKI failure within 24 months for afatinib followed by osimertinib in T790Mpositive group vs osimertinib (time frame: 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Mar 2025.
