Study summary

This is a phase II trial of adjuvant chemotherapy and immunotherapy for completely resected small cell lung cancer (SCLC).

Read the detailed description

This is a phase II open-label, single-arm, multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant immunotherapy with chemotherapy for completely resected pathologic T1-T2, N0-N1, M0 small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The statistical design includes a predefined range of alpha and power to detect an improvement in 2-year disease free survival (DFS).

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Age ≥ 18 years.
  • Body weight >30 kg.
  • Must have a of at least 12 weeks.
  • Must have or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of pathologic T1-T2 N0-1 M0 small-cell lung cancer per the American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system, 8th edition.
  • Have completely resected (wedge resection, segmentectomy, lobectomy, sleeve lobectomy, bilobectomy, or pneumonectomy) small-cell lung cancer within 78 days of enrollment.
  • Complete mediastinal lymph node dissection (MLND) or systematic mediastinal lymph node sampling is required.
  • No prior systemic therapies, for small cell lung cancer.
  • Post-operative radiation for the resected small cell lung cancer is acceptable per treating physician in the setting of N1 disease, but no other prior radiation for small cell lung cancer.
  • performance status 0-1.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who are receiving any other agents.
  • Concurrent enrollment in another clinical study involving investigational treatment directed to treatment of patients with small cell lung cancer.
  • Prior treatment with durvalumab.
  • History of another primary except for:

    • Malignancy treated with curative intent and with no known active disease ≥2 years before the first dose of IP and of low potential risk for recurrence.
    • Adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer or lentigo maligna without evidence of disease.
    • Superficial bladder cancer without active disease after treatment.
    • Low grade prostate cancer without indication for active treatment.
    • Adequately treated carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease.
  • Patients with a history of cerebrovascular accident including (TIA), pulmonary embolism or insufficiently treated deep venous thrombosis (DVT) within the past 3 months.
  • Patients with hemoptysis in excess of 2.5 mL within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study medication.
  • Patients requiring concomitant therapy with phenytoin, phenobarbital, or carbamazepine.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(6)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Life expectancy

The study doctor’s estimate of how long someone is likely to live. Criteria use it so that people can stay in the study long enough for it to answer its question.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed

The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Your pathology report is the document that shows this.

ECOG performance status

A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.

0
Fully active, no restrictions.
1
Limited in strenuous activity, but walking and able to do light work, such as housework or office work.
2
Walking and able to look after yourself, but unable to work; up and about more than half of waking hours.
3
Able to look after yourself only in part; in bed or a chair more than half of waking hours.
4
Unable to look after yourself at all; in bed or a chair all day.

Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

TIA (transient ischaemic attack)

A “mini-stroke”: temporary stroke-like symptoms caused by reduced blood flow to part of the brain, spinal cord or eye, without signs of a new stroke on a scan.

Stroke symptoms need emergency care at once, even if they go away.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Durvalumab and one of the two chemotherapy combinations: cisplatin or carboplatin, and etoposide

    65 participants will be enrolled.

    Drug: Durvalumab 50 MG/ML

Interventions

  • DrugDurvalumab 50 MG/ML

    Drug page: Durvalumab

    Following surgical removal of their small-cell lung cancer, participants will receive a combination of 1500 mg durvalumab and cisplatin 75 mg/m2 or carboplatin AUC 5 on day 1, and etoposide 100 mg/m2 on days 1, 2, and 3, every 3 weeks for 4 cycles (a total of 12 weeks). Following the combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy, participants will then receive 1500 mg durvalumab every 4 weeks for 9 cycles (a total of 36 weeks).

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Disease free survival (DFS)

    To determine whether the addition of durvalumab to adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery for limited-stage SCLC leads to improved disease free survival (DFS) when compared to historical data of participants who received adjuvant chemotherapy without immunotherapy after surgery for SCLC. DFS is measured in months from the time of surgery.

    Time frame: 2 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall survival (OS)

    To determine whether the addition of durvalumab to adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery for limited-stage SCLC leads to improved overall survival (OS) when compared to historical data of participants who received adjuvant chemotherapy without immunotherapy after surgery for SCLC. OS is measured in months from the time of surgery.

    Time frame: 3 years

  2. Safety of the regimen

    The frequency of grade 3+ treatment-related adverse events will be reported.

    Time frame: 1 year

  3. Safety of the regimen

    The frequency of grade 3+ all-cause adverse events will be reported.

    Time frame: 5 years
