Trial summary

Small cell lung cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy. Currently, there is no effective regimen for patients after the progression offirst-line chemotherapy. The prognosis of patients with extensive disease is very poor, and the improved therapeutic efficacy is urgently needed. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Clinical Study of Sequential Sequential Sintilimab Maintenance Therapy in Patients With Extensive Small Cell Lung Cancer After Chemotherapy Combined With Adoptive Cellular Immunotherapy

Small cell lung cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy. Currently, there is no effective regimen for patients after the progression offirst-line chemotherapy. The prognosis of patients with extensive disease is very poor, and the improved therapeutic efficacy is urgently needed. Most patients with small cell lung cancer have a long history of smoking, and the tumor mutation burden is relatively high, which provides potential for immunological checkpoint inhibitors represented by PD-1 antibodies. A number of studies have shown that chemotherapy combined with adoptive cellular immunotherapy could prolong the survival of patients. This study is a clinical study to explore the efficacy and safety of maintenance therapy with sintilimab after 4-6 cycles of first-line chemotherapy combined with adoptive cellular immunotherapy in patients with advanced small cell lung cancer.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • sintilimab maintenanceDrug

    the patients with CR, PR or SD after the chemotherapy plus R-CIK will receive sintilimab maintenance therapy. The dose of sintilimab is fixed at 200mg every three weeks.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. median survival time

    the period from the day of enrollment to the date of death

    Measured: two years.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. progression-free survival

    the period from the day of enrollment to the date of confirmed progression or death depending on which one occurs first.

    Measured: six months

  2. objective response rate of sintilimab

    from the date of first dose of sintilimab to the date of confirmed progression following

    Measured: six month

  3. adverse events rate of sintilimab

    the rate of adverse events during the maintenance therapy of sintilimab

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing sintilimab maintenance in people with Small Cell Lung Cancer and Extensive Disease, run by Henan Cancer Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Quanli Gao, Dr. (+86-15038171966, gaoquanli2015@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

median survival time (time frame: two years.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03983759, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Jun 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
