Clinical Trials for Small Cell Lung Cancer

A Phase 1/2 Study of Combination Lorlatinib and Ramucirumab in Patients With Advanced ALK-rearranged Lung Cancers

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.

HealthScout AI summary: This trial enrolls adults with metastatic or recurrent ALK fusion-positive NSCLC, including both those who are treatment-naïve and those previously treated with at least one second-generation ALK TKI, and evaluates the combination of lorlatinib (a third-generation ALK/ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor with CNS activity) and ramucirumab (a VEGFR2 inhibitor targeting angiogenesis).

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06007937

Phase II Study of Dose Attenuated Chemotherapy in Patients With Lung Cancer and Age > 70 and/or Comorbidities

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.

HealthScout AI summary: This trial enrolls adults with advanced lung cancer (small cell or non-small cell), particularly those over 70 and/or with significant comorbidities or ECOG 0-3, who may not tolerate standard full-dose chemotherapy. Patients receive established cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens (such as platinum doublets or single agents), modified with prespecified reduced dosing based on age and comorbid health conditions.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05800587

A Phase I/IIa Multi-center, Open-label Master Protocol Dose Escalation and Expansion Study of AZD8205 as Monotherapy and in Combination With Anticancer Agents in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors (BLUESTAR)

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.

HealthScout AI summary: This trial enrolls adults with relapsed or metastatic solid tumors—particularly breast, ovarian, endometrial, biliary tract, and squamous NSCLC—who have received prior therapy, evaluating the antibody-drug conjugate AZD8205 (targets B7-H4 and delivers a topoisomerase I inhibitor) as monotherapy or in combination with the PD-1/TIGIT bispecific antibody rilvegostomig or the PARP inhibitor saruparib. Eligible patients must have measurable disease, ECOG 0-1, and adequate organ function, with some sub-studies focusing on select tumor types.

Phase II Randomized Controlled Trial of Biologically Guided Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy in Oligoprogressive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, Melanoma, and Renal Cell Carcinoma

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.

HealthScout AI summary: Adults with oligoprogressive NSCLC, melanoma, or renal cell carcinoma (1-5 progressing sites while on or after checkpoint inhibitor therapy) are randomized to receive either standard SBRT or a PET-guided, biologically adaptive SBRT approach that uses PET/CT to guide dose escalation to metabolically active tumor regions.
