Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

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).

Condition or Disease	Intervention/Treatment	Phase
Extensive-stage Small-cell Lung Cancer	Drug: Durvalumab 50 MG/1 ML Intravenous Solution Drug: Etoposide Injection Drug: Cisplatin Drug: Carboplatin Device: Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy	Phase 1

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.

Subsequent restaging imaging will continue as per standard of care. All patients will continue maintenance therapy with durvalumab until confirmed progressive disease.	Drug: Durvalumab 50 MG/1 ML Intravenous Solution 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. Drug: Etoposide Injection 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). Drug: Cisplatin 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).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of treatment-related adverse events (AEs) [Up to 2.5 years]
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.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Objective Response Rate (ORR) [Up to 2.5 years]
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.
Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung (FACT-L) [At baseline; Up to 2.5 years]
Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung (FACT-L) Scale is a 36-item self-reported instrument that measures multidimensional quality of life for lung cancer patients. Questions are scored on a 5-point Likert Scale. The FACT-L includes the FACT-G (general) assessment which is comprised of four subscales including Physical Well-Being (score = 0-28), Social/Family Well-Being (score= 0-28), Emotional Well Being (score = 0-24), and Functional Well-Being (score = 0-28), for a total score min/max = 0-108, plus, the Lung Cancer Subscale (nine lung cancer related items, score = 0-45). Total scores range from 0-153, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.
