About this study

Official title: The Randomized, Double-blind, Multi-center Phase III Clinical Trial of Trilaciclib Versus Placebo in Participants With Limited-stage Small Cell Lung Cancer Receiving Concurrent Chemo-radiotherapy

The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the myelo-protective effect and safety of Trilaciclib in participants with limited stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC) who are receiving concurrent chemo-radiotherapy.

Researchers will compare Trilaciclib with placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if Trilaciclib works better in protecting the participant's marrow function while receiving concurrent chemo-radiotherapy.

Read the detailed description

The study will enroll approximately 106 participants with LS-CLC. The participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to two groups. One group will receive treatment with Trilaciclib + concurrent chemo-radiotherapy. The other group will receive placebo + concurrent chemo-radiotherapy.

Participants will receive the investigational drug until completion of 4 cycles of Trilaciclib +chemotherapy and concurrent radiotherapy, occurrence of radiographic disease progression, intolerable toxicity, investigator-assessed lack of clinical benefit, voluntary withdrawal from study treatment by the participant or their legally authorized representative, pregnancy, lost to follow-up, death, or study termination, whichever occurs first.

The study process includes screening period, treatment period, end-of-treatment visit, safety follow-up visit, and end-of-study visit.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Trilaciclib, Etoposide Injection and Carboplatin or Cisplatin Injection in people with Myelosuppression, run by Jiangsu Simcere Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. 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 6 inclusion and 16 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 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 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

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?

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?

The duration of severe neutropenia (DSN) in cycle 1 (time frame: During the first cycle (each cycle is 21 days)). 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?
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 19 Oct 2026.
