The head-to-head trial in which furmonertinib nearly doubled the time before lung cancer grew compared with gefitinib, mirroring FLAURA with a Chinese drug.
358 patients, double blind. Median progression-free survival 20.8 versus 11.1 months (hazard ratio 0.44), with strong central nervous system activity and a tolerable safety profile. NMPA first-line approval June 2022. With AENEAS it gave China two domestic third-generation EGFR inhibitors competing with osimertinib on price after NRDL listing.
