Sponsor: J Ints Bio
ClinicalTrials ID:NCT05394831
This clinical trial is testing a new oral medication, JIN-A02, to see if it is safe and effective for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has specific EGFR mutations and has progressed after standard treatments.

Program Overview
The study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and anti-tumor activity of JIN-A02, a new medication for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has specific EGFR mutations. The trial is divided into three parts: Part A focuses on finding the safest dose, Part B explores the best dose for future studies, and Part C examines the medication's effectiveness in different patient groups based on their specific EGFR mutations. Participants will be selected based on their EGFR mutation profile, determined through approved tests on tumor tissue or blood samples.
Description
Part A: Dose Escalation Study
In this part, researchers aim to find the safest dose of JIN-A02 for patients with advanced NSCLC who have specific EGFR mutations (C797S or T790M). The study starts with a low dose and gradually increases it to find the maximum dose that patients can tolerate without severe side effects. Each treatment cycle lasts 28 days, and the medication is taken once daily. If a patient experiences significant side effects, the dose increase will be adjusted. The study will include about 30 patients, with the possibility of adding more if needed.
Part B: Dose Exploration Study
This part aims to identify the best dose of JIN-A02 for future studies by further examining its safety and effectiveness. Based on the results from Part A, two promising dose levels will be selected, and additional patients will be enrolled to confirm these findings. The goal is to determine the recommended dose for Phase II trials.
Part C: Dose Expansion Study
In this part, the study will use the recommended dose from Part B to evaluate the medication's effectiveness in different groups of patients. These groups are based on the type of EGFR mutation they have. The study will include five groups, each with a specific mutation profile, to see how well JIN-A02 works in these different settings. Data will be collected regularly to assess the safety and potential benefits of the treatment.

-
Subjects with pathologically confirmed and finally diagnosed advanced and/or metastatic NSCLC with active EGFR mutant
-
Subjects who show disease progression after receiving standard anticancer therapy, including approved EGFR-TKI therapeutic and/or up to 1 time of platinum-based anticancer chemotherapy.
