Exploring the efficacy and safety of firmonertinib combined with anlotinib and platinum-based doublet chemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with EGFR-mutant resectable NSCLC
Multiple ongoing clinical trials are investigating the efficacy and safety of the new generation EGFR-TKI in neoadjuvant therapy. The research on neoadjuvant targeted therapy is still in its early stages, and the optimal treatment time is still unclear. Additional data from ongoing clinical trials will be crucial in determining the optimal duration of neoadjuvant targeted therapy. Compared with neoadjuvant immunotherapy, preliminary data suggest that the MPR or pathological complete response (pCR) rate of neoadjuvant targeted therapy may be lower, while other efficacy endpoints (R0 resection rate, reduction in progression, Event Free Survival (EFS), DFS, PFS) are comparable.
Firmonertinib is a third-generation EGFR-TKI developed by Shanghai Ailisi Pharmaceutical Technology Co., Ltd. It can simultaneously target EGFR sensitive mutations and Thr790Met mutations [37]. FURLONG research has shown that in the first-line treatment of EGFR mutation positive NSCLC patients in China, fumatinib is superior to first generation EGFR-TKI gefitinib in terms of PFS, and patients have better tolerance. This benefit is consistent in most pre-designated subgroups, including patients with central nervous system metastases.
Anlotinib is a small molecule multi-target TKI independently developed by China Zhengda Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd. It can effectively inhibit kinases such as VEGFR, PDGFR, FGFR, and c-Kit, and has anti-tumor angiogenesis and tumor growth inhibition effects. The oral presentation of the FLALTER study at the 2022 European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) annual meeting showed that the combination of anlotinib and gefitinib significantly prolonged the median progression free survival (PFS) of patients with metastatic EGFR mutant NSCLC compared to the gefitinib monotherapy group.
The preliminary results of multiple ongoing clinical trials indicate that the ORR of anlotinib combined with third-generation EGFR-TKI for the treatment of EGFR mutant advanced NSCLC ranges from 65.20% to 96.15%, demonstrating the enormous potential of the combination therapy. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant firmonertinib combined with anlotinib and chemotherapy in the treatment of resectable EGFR mutation positive NSCLC.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.
Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.
Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.
The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A low level is anaemia, which can cause tiredness and breathlessness. Measured in g/dL or g/L (9 g/dL is 90 g/L).
The number of neutrophils, white blood cells that help fight infection, in a given amount of blood. Too few raises the risk of infection.
It is a count, not a percentage of the white cells. Limits are written in units that mean the same: ≥ 1.5 × 10⁹/L is ≥ 1,500 per mm³ (µL). Each lab has its own reference range.
Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.
A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.
Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.
Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.
Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.
The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.
“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.
How quickly the kidneys clear creatinine, a waste product, from the blood. A study may estimate it from a blood test with age, weight and sex (often by the Cockcroft–Gault formula), or measure it using blood and urine collected over a set time. Given in mL/min; higher is better.
Blood tests of how long blood takes to clot. The INR is the prothrombin time (PT) put on a common scale; about 1 is usual for someone not taking a blood thinner.
Criteria often make an exception for people on a blood thinner such as warfarin, whose INR is raised on purpose.
A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.
Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
