Study summary

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of low-dose radiotherapy (LDRT) combined with sugemalimab, olaparib, chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of SLFN-11 positive extensive stage small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

This study consists of dose escalation and dose expansion in China. Subjects who fulfil all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be enrolled and receive treatment with Sugemalimab, Etoposide/Cisplatin Chemotherapy and Olaparib for 4 cycles with LDRT in the first cycle. Sugemalimab in combination with olaparib will be administered for maintenance therapy after 4 cycles. Sugemalimab will be administered at a dose of 1200 mg every 3 weeks (Q3W) in the first day of every cycle. The LDRT deals with primary tumour in a 15 Gy of 5 fractions over five days, starting from day 1 in the first cycle. Dose of olaparib will identify by assessed recommended dose for expansion (RDE) in dose escalation stage.A dose expansion stage will be conducted after dose escalation. The primary endpoint is safety.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Low-dose radiotherapy combined with sugemalimab, olaparib, etoposide and cisplatin

    Participants will receive the following treatment regimens: LDRT cisplatin + etoposide + sugemalimab+olaparib. Induction treatment will be administered on a 21-day cycle for four cycles.
