Clinical Trials for Small Cell Lung Cancer

A Phase 1/2 Clinical Trial of Quaratusugene Ozeplasmid and Atezolizumab Maintenance Therapy in Patients With Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (ES-SCLC)

Active drug

Investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity in clinical trials

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

TrialFetch AI summary: Adults with extensive-stage SCLC, ECOG 0–1, and response or stable disease after 3–4 cycles of carboplatin, etoposide, and atezolizumab receive maintenance atezolizumab plus intravenous quaratusugene ozeplasmid.

A Pilot Study of DSP-0390 in Combination With Atezolizumab as Maintenance Therapy for Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer

Active drug

Investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity in clinical trials

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

TrialFetch AI summary: Adults with measurable extensive-stage small cell lung cancer and no progression after 3–4 cycles of first-line platinum chemotherapy plus atezolizumab or durvalumab receive maintenance atezolizumab with oral DSP-0390. DSP-0390 is an investigational inhibitor of emopamil-binding protein, an enzyme involved in cholesterol biosynthesis.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07545954

A Phase 1a/1b Study of LY4052031, an Antibody-Drug Conjugate Targeting Nectin-4, in Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma or Other Solid Tumors

Active drug

Investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity in clinical trials

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

TrialFetch AI summary: Patients with advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma after at least one prior regimen, including those previously treated with enfortumab vedotin, or selected other solid tumors after standard options are exhausted receive intravenous LY4052031. This investigational Nectin-4–targeted antibody–drug conjugate delivers a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06465069

A Phase 1/2 Open Label, Dose Escalation and Expansion Study of MDNA11, IL-2 Superkine, Administered Alone or in Combination With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Active drug

Investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity in clinical trials

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

TrialFetch AI summary: Adults with measurable, locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors and ECOG performance status 0–1 receive MDNA11 alone or with pembrolizumab. MDNA11 is a long-acting IL-2 agonist designed to favor IL-2 receptor β signaling in CD8-positive T cells and natural killer cells while limiting regulatory T-cell stimulation; pembrolizumab blocks PD-1.
