MRX-2843 and Osimertinib for the Treatment of Advanced EGFR Mutant Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NCT04762199)
A Phase 1b Safety and Pharmacodynamic Study of MER Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor, MRX-2843, in Combination With Osimertinib in Advanced EGFR Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This phase Ib trial evaluates the best dose and side effects of MRX-2843 when given in combination with osimertinib in treating patients with EGFR gene mutant non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced). MRX-2843 and osimertinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (29 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (17 items).

🧪 Interventions in This Study
📋 "Do I Qualify?" — 1-Minute Self Screener
Instant ChecklistCheck every box below. If you can check all of them, you may meet the study's basic screening requirements (final eligibility is confirmed by the site team).
Usually NOT eligible if any of the following apply:
- Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 4 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to entering the study
- Patients who have not recovered from adverse events due to prior anti-cancer therapy (i.e., have residual toxicities \> grade 1)
- Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents
- Patients with symptomatic untreated brain metastases would be excluded from this clinical trial because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events. Patient with treated or asymptomatic untreated brain metastasis is allowed on study
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to MRX-2843 or osimertinib
- Patients with known diagnosis of interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis
- Patients with corrected QT (QTc) interval prolongation \> 500 msec (average of 3 readings), family history of congenital long QTc syndrome or torsades
- Patients with known cardiomyopathy or decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \< 50%
- Patient with known history of keratitis or symptoms suggestive of keratitis (such as eye inflammation, lacrimation, light sensitivity, blurred vision, eye pain and/or red eye)
- Patients receiving any medications or substances that are inhibitors or inducers of CYP450 enzyme(s) are ineligible. Because the lists of these agents are constantly changing, it is important to regularly consult a frequently-updated medical reference. As part of the enrollment/informed consent procedures, the patient will be counseled on the risk of interactions with other agents, and what to do if new medications need to be prescribed or if the patient is considering a new over-the-counter medicine or herbal product
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
