Aumolertinib plus chemotherapy as first-line treatment for advanced NSCLC with EGFR exon 19 deletion or exon 21 L858R: a phase II trial.
Trial report in The oncologist, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04646824 (A Study of Almonertinib With Chemotherapy as 1st Line Treatment in Patients With Mutated Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer), which is not on this map.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Abstract
backgroundTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of aumolertinib combined with pemetrexed and carboplatin as first-line treatment in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation (exon 19 deletion or exon 21 L858R).
methodsIn phase II trial (NCT04646824), patients received aumolertinib 110 mg once daily plus pemetrexed (500 mg/m2) and carboplatin (area under curve = 5) once every 3 weeks for 4 cycles, followed by maintenance aumolertinib (110 mg once daily) and pemetrexed (500 mg/m2 once every 4 weeks). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), overall survival (OS), and safety.
resultsFrom November 2020 to October 2021, 34 patients were included for analysis. The median PFS was 28.0 months (95% CI, 18.7-36.9). The ORR was 91.2% (31/34), and the DCR was 100%. The median OS was not reached. Of 28 patients with circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) testing, 22 (78.6%) showed clearance of EGFR mutation after 2 or 4 cycles. The median PFS was 31 months in patients with EGFR mutation clearance in ctDNA, and the ORR of them was higher than those without EGFR mutation clearance in ctDNA (90.9% vs 33.3%). The most common grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse event was decreased neutrophil count (22 [64.7%]).
conclusionAumolertinib plus chemotherapy shows potential as first-line treatment for patients with EGFR-mutant advanced NSCLC, which deserves to be investigated in randomized controlled trials. CtDNA clearance may be a prognostic marker.
