Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for adults who have had surgery for lung cancer and have specific genetic mutations. Participants will take either the new treatment zongertinib or standard care to see which is more effective at preventing cancer from returning.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
I am at least 18 years old.
I have signed consent to join the trial.
I have been diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer.
I have had surgery to remove my lung cancer.
I have specific HER2 gene mutations.
I have a good overall health status (ECOG 0 or 1).
I can use effective birth control if I am a woman of childbearing potential.
You may not be able to join if
I have mixed histology lung cancer.
I have had major surgery within the last 4 weeks.
I have received radiation therapy for my lung cancer.
I have another cancer that is active or treated within the last 3 years.
I have a significant heart problem.
I have a history of lung disease or pneumonia.
I am taking any investigational drugs.
I have uncontrolled digestive issues that affect how I take medications.

Beamion LUNG-3 study evaluates whether zongertinib, an oral HER2-targeted treatment, can improve outcomes compared with standard adjuvant treatment in adults with completely resected Stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have activating HER2 tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) mutations.

Beamion LUNG-3 study evaluates whether zongertinib, an oral HER2-targeted treatment, can improve outcomes compared with standard adjuvant treatment in adults with completely resected Stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have activating HER2 tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) mutations. Eligible participants must have undergone curative-intent surgery and received guideline-appropriate perioperative systemic therapy, either neoadjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy with or without immunotherapy, or adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy.
Participants are randomized 1:1 to receive zongertinib or standard of care, which may consist of approved adjuvant immunotherapy or active surveillance, based on local practice guidelines. The main purpose of the study is to determine whether zongertinib can prolong disease-free survival compared to standard treatment. Safety and patient-reported outcomes are also assessed.
