Study summary

This is an investigator-initiated, single-center, observational, noninterventional retrospective real-world cohort study evaluating the effectiveness and safety of tarlatamab as second-line or later-line therapy in Chinese adults with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer. Clinical data are retrospectively collected from patients who received tarlatamab as part of routine clinical care. The primary outcome is overall objective response rate (ORR). Secondary outcomes include overall disease control rate (DCR) and the incidence and severity of adverse events, including cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS). Treatment with tarlatamab and supportive management was determined independently by treating physicians and was not assigned by the study protocol.

Study population

Adult Chinese patients with pathologically confirmed extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer who received tarlatamab in routine clinical practice after at least one prior systemic treatment regimen including platinum-based chemotherapy. Eligible patients were retrospectively identified from available medical records at the study center.

Groups and cohorts

  • Tarlatamab-Treated Cohort

    Adult Chinese patients with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer who received tarlatamab as second-line or later-line therapy in routine clinical practice.

    Drug: Tarlatamab

Interventions

  • Tarlatamab was administered as part of routine clinical care. Treatment decisions, including tarlatamab administration, radiotherapy, and supportive management, were made independently by treating physicians and were not assigned by the study protocol.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Overall ORR is defined as the proportion of patients with an evaluable overall tumor response whose best overall response is complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), based on clinician assessments documented during routine clinical care.

    Time frame: Up to 12 months after the first dose of tarlatamab.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    Overall DCR is defined as the proportion of patients with an evaluable overall tumor response whose best overall response is CR, PR, or stable disease (SD), based on clinician assessments documented during routine clinical care.

    Time frame: Up to 12 months after the first dose of tarlatamab.

  2. Incidence and Severity of Adverse Events

    The incidence and severity of adverse events during tarlatamab treatment are summarized based on available clinical records. Adverse events of special interest include cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), including their highest documented grades and the occurrence of Grade 3 or higher events.

    Time frame: From the first dose of tarlatamab through treatment discontinuation, up to 12 months.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
