Chemo-immunotherapy with split radiation for extensive-stage lung cancer
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and a special type of radiation given in split sessions for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this approach can help control the cancer better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (cancer that has spread beyond one lung).
- You have 3 or fewer spots of cancer in your liver, if any.
- Your overall health is good enough to handle daily activities with some help (ECOG score 0-2).
- You do not have an active autoimmune disease, and you are not taking strong immune-suppressing medications.
- You have not had radiation to your chest that would overlap with this treatment.

This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted radiation for people with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if adding radiation to leftover tumors after initial treatment helps control the disease better.
This trial tests a combination of two experimental immunotherapy drugs (ivonescimab and cadonilimab) with standard chemotherapy for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer who have not had prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination works better than chemo alone.
This study tests using a shorter course of radiation (hypofractionated radiotherapy) combined with immunotherapy for people with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this approach works better at controlling the cancer and may cause fewer side effects.
This trial is testing a new approach for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) that has not been treated before. It combines a high-dose chemotherapy regimen with a drug called adebrelimab (an immunotherapy) and a stem cell transplant to help your body recover. The goal is to see if this powerful combination can work better than standard treatment.
This study tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) plus chemotherapy followed by targeted chest radiation as the first treatment for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if adding radiation after chemo-immunotherapy works better than standard treatment alone.
This trial combines standard chemotherapy and radiation with two immunotherapy drugs (immune checkpoint inhibitors) to see if they work better together for people with limited-stage small cell lung cancer. It aims to improve outcomes without using strong immune-suppressing medicines.
