About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b Trial of Adaptive Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy in Combination With Durvalumab (MEDI4736), Platinum, and Etoposide in Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer

This is trial studying the safety of adaptive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) combined with durvalumab immunotherapy, platinum chemotherapy, and etoposide chemotherapy in platinum refractory extensive stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC).

Read the detailed description

This is a phase Ib, open-label, single-arm study in newly diagnosed patients with extensive stage SCLC, to test the safety of the adaptive addition of SBRT to combination therapy with durvalumab, platinum, and etoposide. Approximately 50 patients with ES-SCLC will be enrolled in this study in order to identify 20 patients with platinum refractory disease who do not show evidence of early response to chemoimmunotherapy. Eligible patients will complete 2 cycles of study treatment with durvalumab, platinum (cisplatin or carboplatin per investigator choice), and etoposide. Patients will then undergo standard of care restaging imaging. Those patients who have a partial or complete response will continue with combination systemic therapy, without additional intervention.

In patients with less than a partial response (stable disease or progressive disease), SBRT will be given prior to cycle 3 of systemic therapy. The radiotherapy will be given in 5 fractions of 6 Gy to the primary tumor site. See study schema. Patients who undergo SBRT will resume systemic therapy within 2 weeks of completing SBRT and the interval between cycle 2 and cycle 3 should not exceed 6 weeks. Subsequent restaging imaging will continue as per standard of care. All patients will continue maintenance therapy with durvalumab until confirmed progressive disease.

What participants receive

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

  • Durvalumab 50 MG/1 ML Intravenous SolutionDrug

    Durvalumab (1500 mg durvalumab via IV infusion) in combination with platinum doublet chemotherapy will be administered to patients once every 3 weeks for up to 4 cycles plus SBRT (platinum resistant group) or without SBRT (platinum sensitive group). Each 3-week of chemoimmunotherapy interval is considered a cycle. Patients with platinum sensitive disease will receive the combination of durvalumab and chemotherapy (total of four cycles) while those with platinum resistant SCLC will receive SBRT and continue to receive up to two additional cycles of treatment with durvalumab along with platinum/etoposide (not to exceed a total of four6 cycles of chemoimmunotherapy including 2 cycles obtained prior to SBRT). Following completion of 4-6 cycles of combination therapy, patients in both groups will continue with maintenance durvalumab (1500 mg) in q4w cycles until disease progression.

  • Etoposide InjectionDrug

    A platinum/etoposide doublet will be administered according to institutional standards. Platinum-etoposide will consist of etoposide 80-100 mg/m2 on days 1-3 of each cycle along with a choice of either carboplatin area under the curve 5-6 mg/mL per min or cisplatin 75-80 mg/m2 (administered on day 1 of each cycle).

  • CisplatinDrug

    Also called Platinum

    A platinum/etoposide doublet will be administered according to institutional standards. Platinum-etoposide will consist of etoposide 80-100 mg/m2 on days 1-3 of each cycle along with a choice of either carboplatin area under the curve 5-6 mg/mL per min or cisplatin 75-80 mg/m2 (administered on day 1 of each cycle).

  • CarboplatinDrug

    Also called Platinum

    A platinum/etoposide doublet will be administered according to institutional standards. Platinum-etoposide will consist of etoposide 80-100 mg/m2 on days 1-3 of each cycle along with a choice of either carboplatin area under the curve 5-6 mg/mL per min or cisplatin 75-80 mg/m2 (administered on day 1 of each cycle).

  • Stereotactic Body RadiotherapyDevice

    Also called SBRT

    Patients will receive palliative radiation to the primary tumor site up to 30 Gy for 1 week given as 5 daily fractions of 6 Gy each or 27 Gy as 3 fractions of 9 Gy administered every other day.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of treatment-related adverse events (AEs)

    Number of patients that experience Adverse Events (AEs) assessed according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0. Adverse Events will be described by Type, Category, including only most severe Grade experienced by a single patient.

    Measured: Up to 2.5 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Proportion of patients with objective response (Complete Response (CR) + Partial Response (PR)) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1. Complete Response (CR) is defined as: Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. Partial Response (PR) is defined as: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

    Measured: Up to 2.5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Durvalumab 50 MG/1 ML Intravenous Solution, Etoposide Injection and Cisplatin in people with Extensive-stage Small-cell Lung Cancer, run by University of Maryland, Baltimore at 1 site in United States.

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 21 inclusion and 36 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Sep 2026. 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 United States. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

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 treatment-related adverse events (AEs) (time frame: Up to 2.5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 14 Sep 2026.
