Zipalertinib With Carboplatin and Pemetrexed for the Treatment of Resectable, Stage II-IIIB, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Phase 2 Trial of Zipalertinib in Patients With Resectable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer With EGFR Exon 20 Insertion or Uncommon/Compound Mutations

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 5 Feb 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This phase II trial tests how well zipalertinib with carboplatin and pemetrexed works in treating stage II-IIIB non small cell lung cancer. that can be removed by surgery (resectable). Zipalertinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Pemetrexed is in a class of medications called antifolate antineoplastic agents. It works by stopping cells from using folic acid to make DNA and may kill tumor cells. Giving zipalertinib with carboplatin and pemetrexed may kill more tumor cells in patients with resectable, stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Concurrent enrollment in another therapeutic clinical study, unless enrolled only in the follow-up period or an observational study. Use of any antineoplastic therapy must not have been received within 30 days prior to the treatment initiation
  • Treatment with live virus, including live-attenuated vaccination, within 30 days prior to the first dose of study treatment. Treatment with inactive vaccines (e.g., non-live or non-replicating agent) and live viral non-replicating vaccines within 3 days prior to first dose of study treatment
  • Unable to swallow tablets or has any disease or condition that may significantly effect gastrointestinal (GI) absorption of zipalertinib (such as active inflammatory bowel disease, malabsorption syndrome, or prior GI resection)
  • History of myocardial infarction and/or symptomatic congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association \> class II) within 3 months prior to first dose of study treatment
  • History of cerebral vascular accident (e.g., stroke or transient ischemic attack) within 3 months prior to first dose of study treatment
  • Active hepatitis C infection.
    • Defined as participants with detectable hepatitis C antibody \[HCV Ab\] and hepatitis C virus \[HCV\] ribonucleic acid (RNA) viral load above the limit of quantification
    • Participants with presence of HCV antibody (HCV Ab positive) and HCV RNA viral load below the limit of quantification (HCV RNA negative) with or without prior treatment are allowed
  • Any condition (concurrent disease, infection, or comorbidity), in the opinion of the Investigator, that interferes with ability to participate in the study, causes undue risk, or complicates the interpretation of safety data

Other illness

  • History of active primary immunodeficiency
  • History of noninfectious pneumonitis that required the use of systemic corticosteroids, history of interstitial lung disease, treatment-related pneumonitis (any grade), or any evidence of clinically active interstitial lung disease
  • History of other malignancy within the past 2 years, with the following exceptions:
    • Malignancy treated with curative intent before enrollment, with no known active disease and felt to be at low risk for recurrence by the treating physician, after discussion with the medical monitor.
    • Adequately treated non-melanomatous skin cancer or lentigo maligna without evidence of disease.
    • Adequately treated cervical carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease.
    • Adequately treated breast ductal carcinoma in situ disease or early stage breast cancer without evidence of disease.
    • Prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia without evidence of prostate cancer, or localized prostate cancer that is adequately treated.
    • Adequately treated urothelial papillary noninvasive carcinoma or carcinoma in situ
  • Diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) requiring active MDS-directed treatment
  • History of allogeneic organ transplant
  • History of hypersensitivity to carboplatin or pemetrexed or any excipients of zipalertinib
  • History of uncontrolled seizures
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
    • Participants with HIV infection on antiviral therapy and undetectable viral load are permitted with a requirement for regular monitoring for reactivation for the duration of treatment on study per local or institutional guidelines
    • HIV screening is not required in the absence of clinical suspicion
  • Active hepatitis B infection.
    • Defined as presence of hepatitis B surface antigen \[HBsAg-positive\] and hepatitis B virus \[HBV\] DNA viral load above the limit of quantification \[HBV DNA positive\]
    • Participants with resolved HBV infection defined as absence of HBV surface antigen (HBsAg-negative) and presence of HBV core antibody (anti-HBc positive) followed by an HBV DNA viral load below the limit of quantification (HBV DNA negative) are allowed, with a requirement for regular monitoring for reactivation for the duration of treatment on the study and assessing the need for HBV prophylaxis therapy per local or institutional guidelines.
    • Participants with chronic HBV infection inactive carriers state, defined as presence of HBV surface antigen (HBsAg-positive) and HBV DNA viral load below the limit of quantification (HBV DNA negative) are allowed, with a requirement for regular monitoring for reactivation for the duration of treatment on the study and assessing the need for HBV prophylaxis therapy per local or institutional guidelines

Other

  • Mixed small cell and NSCLC histology
  • Stages I, IIIB (N3), IIIC, IVA, and IVB NSCLC, including leptomeningeal carcinomatosis or other central nervous system (CNS) metastases
