Has anyone been involved in a clinical trial with osmertinib? It’s an option for my dad or have chemo/radiotherapy concurrently.

My dad has stage 3b lung cancer with PDL1 positive and edfr, a rare mutation. He’s a non smoker and we need to choose between chemo/ radio then surgery or a clinical trial (computer randomly assigns either osmertinib tablets only or osimertinib + chemo or osimertinib + placebo) and then surgery to remove a lung. Has anyone been on this drug? Would like to hear their experience or from those who chose not to do the clinical trial. Any advice welcomed. Thank you
