Treatment and study plan

PLB1004

Drug

Participants received oral PLB1004 240mg on Day 1 every 3 weeks (q3w), IV infusion of 500 milligrams per meter square (mg/m^2) pemetrexed on Day 1 q3w, and as per investigator's choice either IV infusion of carboplatin on Day 1 q3w with a dose calculated using 'Calvert formula' to obtain area under concentration versus time (AUC) = 5 milligrams per milliliter per minute (mg/mL/min) or IV infusion of 75 mg/m^2 cisplatin q3w on Day 1 q3w, during induction dosing period of 4 or 6 cycles (Cycle length=21 days). Participants who experienced clinical benefit during the induction phase began maintenance therapy. Participants will receive oral PLB1004 240mg and 500 mg/m^2 of pemetrexed on Day 1 q3w until disease progression in the maintenance period.

Pemetrexed+(carboplatin or Cisplatin)with or without Sintilimab

Drug

Participants received IV infusion of 500 milligrams per meter square (mg/m^2) pemetrexed on Day 1 q3w, and as per investigator's choice either IV infusion of carboplatin on Day 1 q3w with a dose calculated using 'Calvert formula' to obtain area under concentration versus time (AUC) = 5 milligrams per milliliter per minute (mg/mL/min) or IV infusion of 75 mg/m^2 cisplatin q3w on Day 1 q3w, during induction dosing period of 4 or 6 cycles (Cycle length=21 days). Sintilimab 200mg intravenously administered on day 1 q3w per investigator's decision. Participants who experienced clinical benefit during the induction phase began maintenance therapy. Participants will receive oral PLB1004 and 500 mg/m^2 of pemetrexed on Day 1 q3w and Sintilimab 200mg intravenously administered on day 1 q3w per investigator's decision. until disease progression in the maintenance period.

    Time frame: 3 years

    Time to second progression-free survival (PFS2) as assessed by the investigator

  3. Assess the Quality of Healthy Living About Patients

    Time frame: 3 years

    Use the EQ-5D-5L scale to measure patients' quality of healthy living. It has 5 items (Mobility, Self-care, Usual activities, Pain/discomfort, Depression/anxiety). Each item contains 5 levels: 1= no difficulty, 2= slight difficulty, 3= moderate difficulty, 4= serious difficulty, 5= extremely serious difficulty. The higher the score has the worse the health. Then, the score calculation of the European Five-Dimensional Health Scale is based on the calculation formula published by the EuroQol Group. Based on 5 combinations of different severity levels, a score of 0 to 1 is obtained. 0 is the least healthy and 1 is the most healthy.

  4. EGFR Ex20ins status in tumor tissues and its relevance to the clinical efficacy of drugs

    Time frame: 3 years

    EGFR Ex20ins status in tumor tissues and its relevance to the clinical efficacy of drugs

  5. Gene mutation status in plasma ctDNA before and after medication, and its correlation with clinical efficacy

    Time frame: 3 years

    To assess the expression of circulating tumor DNA in ascites and blood, ctDNA was mesured at screen, cycle 3 and end of the study
