What is being measured

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

  1. pathological complete response rate

    The proportion of residual tumor cells evaluated under the microscope by the pathologist

    Measured: Within 2 weeks after radical surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Objective response rate

    Measured according to RECIST1.1 evaluation criteria

    Measured: Once every 2 cycles(each cycle is 21 days) during the combined treatment phase

  2. Event-free survival

    Assess whether the lesion is operable and measure the progression of the lesion according to the RECIST1.1 assessment criteria

    Measured: Follow-up at the end of cycle 2(each cycle is 28 days), 3 to 5 weeks after the last chemotherapy, 30 days after surgery, every 3 months within two years from enrollment or until death

  3. Overall survival

    Lesions were measured according to RECIST1.1 evaluation criteria

    Measured: Follow-up every 3 months and every 6 months within two years from enrollment or until death

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 4 cycles of Serplulimab combined with etoposide and carboplatin or cisplatin in people with SCLC, Limited Stage, run by Guangdong Provincial People's 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 14 inclusion and 24 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Apr 2025. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Chen Huang, MD (+8616620159730, jeromehuang1997@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

pathological complete response rate (time frame: Within 2 weeks after radical surgery). 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 4 Apr 2025.
