A plain-language summary of the goals, design and what participants do
This clinical trial is focused on studying treatments for advanced or metastatic solid tumors, including a specific type of lung cancer known as EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer. The study involves several medications, including amivantamab, which is given as an injection under the skin, and lazertinib, which is taken as a tablet. Additionally, the study uses pemetrexed and carboplatin, both administered through a vein. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of these treatments in controlling tumor growth.
Participants in the study will receive one or more of these medications, depending on their specific condition and the study group they are assigned to. The study is designed to observe how well the treatments work over a period of time, which can last up to several weeks. Some participants may receive a combination of these medications, while others might receive a single treatment. The study will also include a group that receives a placebo, which is a substance with no active medication, to compare the effects of the actual treatments.
The study aims to provide valuable information on the potential benefits of these treatments for patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors, particularly those with EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer. By participating in this study, researchers hope to gain insights into how these medications can help manage the disease and improve patient outcomes. The results of this study could lead to new treatment options for patients with these types of cancer.
The trial runs in 5 steps – from screening to follow-up. Each step says what happens and what the team monitors.

These are cancers that have spread from their original site to other parts of the body. They can originate in various organs and tissues, forming solid masses. As the disease progresses, the tumors can invade nearby tissues and organs, causing a range of symptoms depending on their location. The spread of these tumors to distant sites is known as metastasis, which can complicate the condition further. The progression of these tumors can vary greatly depending on the type of cancer and its location in the body.
This is a type of lung cancer characterized by mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene. These mutations lead to uncontrolled cell growth and division, contributing to the development of cancer. As the disease progresses, it can spread to other parts of the body, including the bones, brain, and liver. Symptoms may include persistent cough, chest pain, and difficulty breathing. The presence of EGFR mutations can influence the behavior of the cancer and its response to certain treatments.
