About this study

Official title: A Phase IIIB, Single Arm, Multicenter Study of Atezolizumab (Tecentriq) in Combination With Carboplatin Plus Etoposide to Investigate Safety and Efficacy in Patients With Untreated Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer - MAURIS

This is a phase IIIB, single-arm, single-country, multicenter study of the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab in combination with carboplatin plus etoposide in patients who have ES-SCLC and are chemotherapy-naive for their extensive-stage disease.

Read the detailed description

Induction treatment will be administered on a 21-day cycle for four/six cycles. Following the induction phase, participants will continue maintenance therapy with atezolizumab. Maintenance with atezolizumab will continue until disease progression (PD), unacceptable toxicity or loss of clinical benefit.

What participants receive

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

  • AtezolizumabDrug

    Also called MPDL3280A, RO5541267, Tecentriq

    Atezolizumab will be administered by IV infusion at a fixed dose of 1200 mg on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle until unacceptable toxicity or loss of clinical benefit as determined by the investigator. After the induction phase, participants will begin maintenance therapy with atezolizumab every 3 weeks.

  • CarboplatinDrug

    Carboplatin will be administered after completion of atezolizumab by IV infusion over 30-60 minutes to achieve an initial target AUC of 5 mg/mL/min (Calvert formula dosing) with standard anti-emetics per local practice guidelines.

  • EtoposideDrug

    Etoposide will be administered by IV infusion over 60 minutes following carboplatin administration, during the induction phase on Day 1 through 3 of each cycle. On Days 2 and 3, patients will receive etoposide alone.

Study groups in NCT04028050
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Atezolizumab + Carboplatin + EtoposideExperimentalParticipants will receive intravenous infusions of atezolizumab 1200 milligrams (mg) in combination with carboplatin to achieve an initial target area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of 5 milligrams per milliliter per minute (mg/mL/min), followed by intravenous infusion of etoposide 100 milligrams per square meter (mg/m^2) on days 1 through 3 of each cycle during the induction phase (21-day cycle for four/six cycles). On Days 2 and 3, participants will receive etoposide alone. After the induction phase, participants will begin maintenance therapy with atezolizumab every 3 weeks until PD, unacceptable toxicity, loss of clinical benefit or study termination by the Sponsor.

  5. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS, defined as the time from initiation of study treatment to the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. PFS will be calculated based on disease status evaluated by the investigator according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1)

    Measured: Up to approximately 54 months

  6. Objective response rate (ORR)

    ORR, defined as the percentage of patients who attain complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to RECIST v1.

    Measured: Up to approximately 54 months

  7. Duration of Response (DOR)

    Duration of response (DOR), defined as the time from initial response to disease progression or death among patients who have experienced a CR or PR (unconfirmed) during the study. Duration of response will be calculated based on disease status evaluated by the investigator according to RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: Up to approximately 54 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Atezolizumab, Carboplatin and Etoposide in people with Small Cell Lung Carcinoma, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 25 sites in Italy.

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 15 inclusion and 14 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 25 sites in Italy. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of Serious Adverse Events (time frame: 4 weeks after last dose of study treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04028050, 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 16 Jul 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
