  • 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:

  • 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.

  • 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.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 in combination with other cancer therapies in study participants with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). To determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and/or Recommended Dose (RD) of ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 administered in combination with other cancer therapies. To evaluate the antitumor activity of ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 in combination with other cancer therapies. To evaluate the PK profiles of ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 and other cancer therapies when administered in combination.
Detailed Description
This is a Phase 1b, open-label, multicenter master protocol evaluating safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 in combination with other cancer therapies in study participants with advanced NSCLC. The study will commence with the following dose escalation cohorts: ERAS-007 plus osimertinib in study participants with advanced NSCLC harboring epidermal growth factor receptor-sensitizing mutation(s) (EGFRm); ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 plus sotorasib in study participants with advanced NSCLC harboring Kirsten rat sarcoma G12C mutation (KRAS G12Cm). Dose expansion will follow and will evaluate ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 drug combinations administered at the RD identified from each respective dose escalation cohort in study participants with advanced EGFRm or KRAS G12Cm NSCLC.
