A Study of Anti-Cancer Therapies Targeting the MAPK Pathway in Patients With Advanced NSCLC (HERKULES-2)
Advanced Non-squamous Non-small-cell Lung Cancer

About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Advanced Non-squamous Non-small-cell Lung Cancer focused on measuring EGFR, epidermal growth factor receptor, mutation, biomarker, NSCLC, Tagrisso, osimertinib, ERK, MAPK, sotorasib, Lumakras, KRAS, G12C, SHP2, PTPN11, molecular alterations, Kirsten rat sarcoma, Non-small cell lung cancer, Lung neoplasms, Thoracic neoplasms, ERAS-601, ERAS-007
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age ≥ 18 years.
- Willing and able to give written informed consent.
- Have histologically or cytologically confirmed NSCLC, with presence of EGFR mutation(s) sensitive to EGFR inhibitors, or KRAS G12C mutation.
- Measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1.
- Adequate bone marrow and organ function.
- Have ECOG performance status of 0 or 1.
- Willing to comply with all protocol-required visits, assessments, and procedures.
- Able to swallow oral medication.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Concurrent treatment with any systemic anticancer therapy for NSCLC, including any approved or investigational agent.
- For participants with EGFRm NSCLC: prior therapy with a RAS, RAF, MEK, or ERK inhibitor.
- For participants with KRAS G12Cm NSCLC: prior therapy with a SHP2, ERK, or KRAS G12C inhibitor (depending on which cohort is being considered for enrollment).
- Palliative radiotherapy within 7 days of enrollment.
- History of unacceptable toxicity to treatment with osimertinib or sotorasib.
- Major surgery within the 28 days of enrollment.
- Unresolved toxicities from prior systemic therapy greater than NCI CTCAE grade 1 at time of enrollment, except for toxicities not considered a safety risk (eg, alopecia, vitiligo, and grade 2 neuropathy due to prior chemotherapy).
- History of another malignancy ≤5 years prior to first dose, except for patients who are disease-free for >2 years after treatment with curative intent or who have carcinoma in situ.
- Symptomatic and unstable brain metastases, or spinal cord compression, except for patients who have completed definitive therapy (surgery or radiotherapy), are not on steroids, and have a stable neurologic status for a least 2 weeks after completion of the definitive therapy and steroids.
- History of or clinically active ILD, drug induced ILD, or radiation pneumonitis that required steroid treatment.
- Impaired cardiovascular function or clinically significant cardiovascular disease.
- History or current evidence of retinal pigment epithelial detachment (RPED), central serous retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion (RVO), or predisposing factors to RPED or RVO.
- Any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease or evidence of any other significant clinical disorder or laboratory finding that renders the patient inappropriate to participate in the study.
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
- Contraindication to osimertinib or sotorasib use as per local label.

ERAS-007 will be orally administered in combination with osimertinib to study participants with EGFRm NSCLC in sequential ascending doses until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or withdrawal of consent.
ERAS-007 will be orally administered in combination with sotorasib to study participants with KRAS G12Cm NSCLC in sequential ascending doses until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or withdrawal of consent.
ERAS-601 will be orally administered in combination with sotorasib to study participants with KRAS G12Cm NSCLC in sequential ascending doses until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or withdrawal of consent.
ERAS-007 will be orally administered at the recommended dose (as determined from Part 1) in combination with osimertinib to study participants with EGFRm NSCLC.
ERAS-007 will be orally administered at the recommended dose (as determined from Part 2) in combination with sotorasib to study participants with KRAS G12Cm NSCLC.
ERAS-601 will be orally administered at the recommended dose (as determined from Part 3) in combination with sotorasib to study participants with KRAS G12Cm NSCLC.
