Clinical Trials for Small Cell Lung Cancer

A Randomized Phase II/III Study of Docetaxel and Ramucirumab With or Without Cemiplimab for Participants Previously Treated With Platinum-Based Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy for Stage IV or Recurrent Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (Lung-MAP Non-Matched Sub-Study)

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: This trial enrolls patients with stage IV or recurrent NSCLC who have progressed after platinum-based chemotherapy and prior anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapy, comparing standard docetaxel plus ramucirumab versus the same regimen with the addition of cemiplimab (an anti-PD-1 antibody) to assess benefit in the post-immunotherapy setting.

ResQ201A: Randomized, Open-Label, Phase 3 Clinical Trial of N-803 Plus Tislelizumab and Docetaxel Versus Docetaxel Monotherapy in Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Who Have Acquired Resistance to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy

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: This trial enrolls adults with advanced or metastatic NSCLC who have progressed after one line of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy, testing the combination of N-803 (an IL-15 superagonist that activates NK and CD8+ T cells), tislelizumab (anti-PD-1), and docetaxel versus docetaxel alone. Eligible patients may have any NSCLC histology or actionable mutations except ALK, and should have ECOG 0-2 and adequate organ function.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06745908

A Phase 1a/1b Multicenter, Open-label Dose Escalation/Expansion Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Preliminary Evidence of Antitumor Activity of PLN-101095 as Monotherapy and in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Adult Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors Who Have Disease Progression While on Pembrolizumab

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.

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 advanced or metastatic solid tumors that progressed after at least 3 months of pembrolizumab, and who have no effective treatment options, receive oral PLN-101095 alone or with continued pembrolizumab. PLN-101095 inhibits αvβ8 and αvβ1 integrins to reduce activation of immunosuppressive TGF-β in the tumor microenvironment.
