Clinical Trial Summary

Small Cell Lung cancer (SCLC) is a highly aggressive tumor that accounts for about 15 percent of all lung cancer cases. SCLC disease progresses rapidly, and about 2/3 of the patients have extensive stage (ES-SCLC) at the time of diagnosis, with extremely poor prognosis. However, the overall survival (OS) of ES-SCLC patients was not significantly prolonged, with platinum combined with etoposide chemotherapy as the standard treatment. In recent years, the emergence of Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) has made the treatment of ES-SCLC appear at the dawn. In Impower133 study, Atezolizumab combined with chemotherapy significantly prolonged OS(median OS 12.3 months vs 10.3 months, HR=0.70, 95%CI 0.54-0.91, P = 0.007). Durvalumab combined with chemotherapy (CASPIAN study) is the first study in 20 years in which the total survival time of ES-SCLC treated by first-line therapy is 13 months, and there is no significant increase in adverse reactions compared with chemotherapy. Therefore, in 2019, NCCN also recommended Atezolizumab or Durvalumab+ EC regimens as a category 1 preferred option for first-line treatment of ES-SCLC.


Clinical Trial Description

In recent years, the emergence of Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) has made the treatment of ES-SCLC appear at the dawn. In Impower133 study, Atezolizumab combined with chemotherapy significantly prolonged OS(median OS 12.3 months vs 10.3 months, HR=0.70, 95%CI 0.54-0.91, P = 0.007). Durvalumab combined with chemotherapy (CASPIAN study) is the first study in 20 years in which the total survival time of ES-SCLC treated by first-line therapy is 13 months, and there is no significant increase in adverse reactions compared with chemotherapy. Therefore, in 2019, NCCN also recommended Atezolizumab or Durvalumab+ EC regimens as a category 1 preferred option for first-line treatment of ES-SCLC. Although THE TMB of SCLC is higher in solid tumors, the objective remission rate (ORR) of SCLC using PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitors is slightly lower than that of non-small cell lung cancer, and frequent drug resistance becomes the bottleneck of treatment. Some recent studies have shown that anti-angiogenesis drugs can also reverse the immunosuppressive state of tumor microenvironment while anti-tumor therapy, and improve the efficacy of ICI, so as to play a synergistic role. Therefore, anti-angiogenesis therapy combined with immunotherapy is expected to be a new strategy for the treatment of SCLC. Amlotinib is a multi-target anti-angiogenic drug, which has been approved for third-line treatment of SCLC with mild adverse reactions. Anlotinib combined with Durvalumab may have a synergistic antitumor effect, but no studies have been reported so far. Therefore, on the basis of the CASPIAN research study, we designed the Durvalumab + chemotherapy + ernesto, first-line treatment for extensive stage small cell lung cancer with single arm, open, multicenter, phase II clinical research, expected in domestic five cancer center, into the group of 120 ES - SCLC patients with untreated, research Durvalumab + chemotherapy + ROM for efficacy and safety of Ann, and further explore the curative effect of predictive biomarkers. ;
