Study Update summary
11 Jun, 2026Study background and objectives
Focus on firmonertinib, an EGFR inhibitor, for NSCLC patients with PACC mutations, addressing a population with poor outcomes on current therapies.
FURTHER Phase 1b global study evaluated firmonertinib monotherapy in locally advanced/metastatic NSCLC with EGFR PACC mutations, enrolling 60 patients across 10 countries.
EGFR PACC mutations represent 12% of all EGFR mutations and are linked to lower life expectancy and unmet medical need.
High incidence of brain metastases observed, typical for EGFR mutant NSCLC.
Primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR) by blinded independent central review (BICR); secondary endpoints included duration of response and CNS activity.
Key study results
Confirmed ORR for 1L PACC patients was 68.2% at 240 mg and 43.5% at 160 mg (BICR), with most responses at first tumor assessment and disease control rates up to 100%.
Median progression-free survival (mPFS) was 16.0 months at 240 mg and 11.1 months at 160 mg, exceeding historical benchmarks.
CNS activity demonstrated with 53% CNS ORR and 41% complete CNS responses in evaluable patients.
Median duration of response was 14.6 months at the 240 mg dose.
Safety profile remained manageable and consistent with EGFR-TKI class, with no grade 4-5 treatment-related adverse events or new safety signals.
Next steps and development plans
Advancing firmonertinib into a global pivotal Phase 3 registration study (ALPACCA) as an oral, chemo-free monotherapy for 1L EGFR PACC mutant NSCLC, with first patient enrollment expected in the second half of 2025.
ALPACCA will randomize 480 patients to firmonertinib 240 mg or investigator's choice of osimertinib/afatinib, with primary endpoints of ORR and PFS and potential for accelerated and full approval.
Topline pivotal Phase 3 data in 1L EGFR Exon 20 insertion mutant NSCLC expected in 2025.
Firmonertinib is also being studied in other global trials for various EGFR mutations, including exon 20 insertions.
Firmonertinib has received FDA Breakthrough Therapy and Orphan Drug designations for related indications.
