Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Age from 18 to 75 years old.

2. Histology or cytology is confirmed to be NSCLC, imaging confirmed to be advanced NSCLC with brain metastasis (including relapsed or newly diagnosed advanced patients after previous surgical treatment; according to AJCC eighth edition lung cancer staging standards).

3. Tumor tissue samples or blood samples are confirmed to be EGFR sensitive mutations (including exon 19 deletion or L858R, both alone or coexist with other EGFR mutations). Tumor tissue is the first choice for examination; if the tumor tissue is not accessible or the patient cannot accept a tissue biopsy, a blood sample can be sent.

4. Have not received any systemic treatment. For patients who have received local treatment, the lesion within the scope of the local treatment cannot be used as the target lesion unless the lesion has progressed.

5. According to RECIST1.1, the patient has at least one intracranial target lesion and one extracranial target lesion. The requirements for target lesions are: measurable lesions that have not undergone local treatment such as irradiation or have clearly progressed after local treatment, with the longest diameter at baseline ≥10 mm (if it is a lymph node, the maximum short diameter is required to be ≥15 mm).

6. The brain condition is stable for at least 2 weeks before the study drug treatment, without any systemic (oral or parenteral) corticosteroid or anticonvulsant drug treatment. Non-absorbable corticosteroids can be used locally and inhaled according to the indications.

7. The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) physical status score is 0 or 1, and has not deteriorated at least 2 weeks before the study drug treatment, and the expected survival period is not less than 12 weeks.

8. Female patients of childbearing age are willing to take appropriate contraceptive measures and should not breastfeed from signing the informed consent to 6 months after the last study drug treatment; male patients are willing to take appropriate contraceptive measures from signing the informed consent to 6 months after the last study drug treatment Use barrier contraception (ie condoms).

9. Female patients of childbearing age must have a negative serum or urine HCG test within 7 days before enrollment in the study, and they must be non-lactating.

10. The subject voluntarily participated and signed an informed consent form in writing.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Treatment with any of the following:

1. Previously received EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) treatment (such as erlotinib, gefitinib, icotinib, afatinib, osimertinib, and almonertinib, etc.) );

2. Within 4 weeks before the first administration of the study drug, the patient has undergone major surgery (such as craniotomy, thoracotomy, or laparotomy, etc.), or underwent minor traumatic surgery (biopsy, bronchoscopy, and Thoracic drainage).

4. Recurrence within 6 months after adjuvant or neoadjuvant treatment for early lung cancer; if there is both neoadjuvant therapy and adjuvant therapy, the adjuvant treatment time will be calculated;

5. Within 14 days before the first administration of the research drug, Chinese medicines and preparations with anti-tumor therapy or anti-tumor adjuvant therapy have been used (see Appendix E for the list of drugs);

6. There is pleural effusion/peritoneal effusion that requires clinical intervention (patients who do not need to drain the effusion or who are stable for 2 weeks or more can be included in the group); there is pericardial effusion (a small amount of pericardium that is stable for 2 weeks or more) Fluid effusion is allowed to enter the group). If anti-tumor drugs have been used locally (such as chest cavity perfusion) during drainage, at least 5 drug half-lives or 21 days (whichever is shorter) must be eluted before the first administration of the study treatment before they can be included in the group;

7. Within 7 days before the first administration of the study drug, have used CYP3A4 strong inhibitors, strong inducers, or narrow therapeutic window drugs with sensitive substrates, or need to continue to receive these drugs during the study period (see Appendix E for the list of drugs);

8. Are receiving drugs that are known to prolong the QT interval or may cause torsades de pointes, or need to continue to receive these drugs during the study period (see Appendix E for the drug list and washout time);

9. The 5 half-lives of the study drug that participates in other clinical trials as a subject or is still in other clinical trials within 4 weeks before the first administration of the study drug, whichever is longer (except for screening failure).

2. Mixed SCLC and mixed NSCLC, large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma and sarcomatoid carcinoma confirmed by histology or cytology.

3. At the beginning of the study drug treatment, those with unresolved residual toxicity from previous anti-tumor therapy greater than CTCAE level 1, except for hair loss and level 2 neurotoxicity caused by previous anti-tumor. In the past, intracranial hemorrhage unrelated to the tumor occurred.

4. History of other primary malignant tumors, except for the following:

1. Malignant tumors that have been cured, have no activity for ≥5 years and have a very low risk of recurrence before being selected for the study;
