Plain-language summary
This is a phase 3 double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, study to assess the efficacy and safety of Furmonertinib (AST2818) versus placebo in patients with stage II-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with centrally confirmed, most common sensitising EGFR mutations (Ex19Del and L858R) either alone or in combination with other EGFR mutations as confirmed by a central test, who have had complete tumour resection, with or without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Male or female, aged at least 18 years.
* Histologically confirmed diagnosis of primary non-small lung cancer (NSCLC) on predominantly non-squamous histology.
* MRI or CT scan of the brain must be done prior to surgery as it is considered standard of care.
* Patients must be classified post-operatively as Stage IB, II, or IIIA on the basis of pathologic criteria.
* Confirmation by the central laboratory that the tumor harbors one of the 2 common EGFR mutations known to be associated with EGFR-TKI sensitivity (Ex19del, L858R), either alone or in combination with other EGFR mutations including T790M.
* Complete surgical resection of the primary NSCLC is mandatory. All gross disease must have been removed at the end of surgery. All surgical margins of resection must be negative for the tumor.
* Complete recovery from surgery and standard post-operative therapy (if applicable) at the time of randomization.
* World Health Organization Performance Status of 0 to 1.
* Female patients should be using adequate contraceptive measures, should not be breastfeeding, and must have a negative pregnancy test prior to the first dose of the study drug; or female patients must have evidence of non-child-bearing potential.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Pre-operative or post-operative or planned radiation therapy for the current lung cancer
* Pre-operative (neo-adjuvant) platinum-based or other chemotherapy
* Any prior anticancer therapy
* Prior treatment with neoadjuvant or adju…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
