Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Small Cell"

BIOLUMA is a multicentric non-randomised phase II trial in patients with non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (Cohort 1) and patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) (Cohort 2) after failure of platinum-based first-line therapy. NSCLC patients are treated with nivolumab until disease progression and subsequently receive a combination therapy of nivolumab and ipilimumab. SCLC patients receive four cycles of nivolumab in combination with ipilimumab and subsequent nivolumab monotherapy. Primary endpoint for both cohorts is overall response rate of combination therapy. Within the diagnostic part tumor biopsies will be analysed. Tumor tissue will be obtained before initiation of therapy and after progression on nivolumab monotherapy before addition of ipilimumab in Cohort 1 and after completion of the four nivolumab/ipilimumab combination cycles before continuation of nivolumab monotherapy in Cohort 2, respectively. Flow cytometry of blood samples and microbiome analysis of deep rectal swaps are performed prior to therapy as well as during course of treatment. Cohort 1 (NSCLC) is closed for enrollment due to Sponsor decision. In Cohort 2 (SCLC) a prescreening for high Tumor Mutation Burden is necessary before enrollment.

This phase II trial studies whether atezolizumab in combination with talazoparib works better than atezolizumab alone as maintenance therapy for patients with SLFN11-positive extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. PARPs are proteins that help repair damage to DNA, the genetic material that serves as the body's instruction book. Changes (mutations) in DNA can cause tumor cells to grow quickly and out of control, but PARP inhibitors like talazoparib may keep PARP from working, so tumor cells can't repair themselves, and they stop growing. Giving atezolizumab in combination with talazoparib may help lower the chance of extensive-stage small cell lung cancer growing and spreading compared to atezolizumab alone.

This phase II trial studies the effect of niraparib and dostarlimab in treating small cell lung cancer and other high-grade neuroendocrine carcinomas. Niraparib is an inhibitor of PARP, an enzyme that helps repair deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) when it becomes damaged. Blocking PARP may help keep cancer cells from repairing their damaged DNA, causing them to die. PARP inhibitors are a type of targeted therapy. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as dostarlimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving niraparib and dostarlimab may help to control the diseases.

Background: Drugs known as PARP inhibitors are known to help stop tumor growth in patients with breast, ovarian cancers and many other cancers including prostate and pancreatic cancers. Many research studies done in animals and human cells have shown that these type of drugs can improve how well chemotherapy works. Standard chemotherapy can be too toxic to be combined with PARP inhibitors. In this study, we use a new form of chemotherapy called PLX038 to see if it can be safely combined with PARP inhibitors to shrink tumors. Objective: To find a safe combination of PLX038 and rucaparib, and to see if this mix will cause tumors to shrink. Eligibility: People age 18 and older with solid tumors, SCLC, or small cell cancer outside their lungs. Design: Participants will be screened with: Physical exam Blood tests Records of their diagnosis (or they will have a tumor biopsy) A review of their symptoms and medications A review of their ability to perform their normal activities Electrocardiograms to measure the electrical activity of the heart Computed tomography (CT) scans of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis. CT scans are a series of X-rays. Participants will get PLX038 by intravenous catheter on Day 1 of each cycle (1 cycle = 21 days). For this, a small plastic tube is put into an arm vein. They will take rucaparib twice daily by mouth on Days 3 to 19 of each cycle. They will keep a medicine diary. Participants may give a hair sample. They may have optional tumor biopsies. Screening tests are repeated throughout the study. About 30 days after treatment ends, participants will have a safety follow-up visit. They will give blood samples, talk about their health, and get a physical exam. Then they will be called or emailed every 6 months....

This Global Phase 3 study aims to find out whether RRx-001 + platinum chemotherapy is more effective than platinum chemotherapy alone in 3rd line or beyond small cell cancer.

This phase II trial studies cediranib maleate in combination with olaparib in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other parts of the body (advanced/metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), including breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, and pancreatic cancer. Cediranib maleate and olaparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Cediranib maleate may also block the flow of oxygen to the tumor, and may help make the tumor more sensitive to olaparib.

This phase II trial studies how well the combination of XL184 (cabozantinib), nivolumab, and ipilimumab work in treating patients with poorly differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (i.e., neuroendocrine tumor that does not look like the normal tissue it arose from). Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cabozantinib, nivolumab and ipilimumab may shrink the cancer.

An open-label, multicenter, Phase 1b/2 study to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose and assess the efficacy and safety of BXCL701 administered orally, as monotherapy and in combination with PEMBRO, in patients with mCRPC. Patients enrolled in the Phase 2a portion of the study will have either Small Cell Neuroendocrine Prostate Cancer(SCNC)(Cohort A) or adenocarcinoma phenotype (Cohort B), while the Phase 2b randomized portion of the study will enroll only the histologic subtype(s) showing preliminary evidence in Phase 2a. The study will also assess other efficacy parameters, such as rPFS, PSA PFS, OS, and DOR, as well as the safety of the combined treatment. The study will consist of three components.

This is a Phase II, single arm, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of low-dose radiotherapy (LDRT) concurrent cisplatin/carboplatin plus etoposide with atezolizumab in participants who have extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) and are chemotherapy-navïe for their extensive-stage disease.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of berzosertib (M6620 [VX-970]) when given together with whole brain radiation therapy in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, or neuroendocrine tumors that have spread from the original (primary) tumor to the brain (brain metastases). Berzosertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving berzosertib together with radiation therapy may work better compared to standard of care treatment, including brain surgery and radiation therapy, in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, or neuroendocrine tumors.
