Alisertib for extensive stage small cell lung cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a new drug called alisertib for people with small cell lung cancer that has spread. It is for those who have already tried standard treatments (chemotherapy and immunotherapy) and need another option.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have been diagnosed with small cell lung cancer that has spread (extensive stage).
- You have already had one platinum-based chemotherapy (like cisplatin or carboplatin) and one immunotherapy (PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor).
- You may have had one additional treatment for SCLC, but no more than 2 total prior treatments.
- You have not been treated with a drug that targets the Aurora kinase (like alisertib) before.

This trial tests a combination of two drugs, alisertib and paclitaxel, for people with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) who have already had at least one type of platinum chemotherapy and an immunotherapy. The goal is to see if this treatment can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (sacituzumab tirumotecan and anlotinib) for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has gotten worse after one prior treatment. The goal is to see if this new combination can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) with chemotherapy and chest radiation for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) that has spread. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink or control the cancer longer.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, sacituzumab tirumotecan and anlotinib, for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has worsened after at least two cycles of standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink or control the cancer.
This Phase 2 study tests whether ALK-targeted drugs can shrink or control advanced squamous cell cancer that has spread. You may be eligible if your tumor has an ALK gene rearrangement and you have not had prior cancer medicines for this stage.
This trial tests a new drug, alisertib, combined with hormone therapy for people with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread or come back and is no longer curable. It may be an option if you've already tried at least two hormone therapies and a CDK4/6 inhibitor.
