Study of a new drug combined with irinotecan for small cell lung cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a new drug (cirtuvivint) combined with irinotecan, a common chemotherapy, for people whose small cell lung cancer has progressed after at least one prior treatment. The goal is to see if the combination helps control the cancer and whether it is safe.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have small cell lung cancer that has grown after at least one round of earlier chemotherapy.
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You are generally able to take care of yourself (ECOG performance status of 2 or less).
- Your blood counts and liver and kidney function are adequate (blood tests will be done to check).
- You have not had a bad reaction to irinotecan in the past and are not currently on other cancer treatments.
- You have no untreated brain metastases (or they have been treated and are stable; tiny, asymptomatic spots are allowed).

This trial is testing a new form of chemotherapy called irinotecan liposomes for people with advanced small cell lung cancer that has worsened after initial treatment. It aims to see if this drug can shrink tumors and improve survival.
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (liposomal irinotecan plus others) as a first treatment for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It may offer a new approach if you haven't had any therapy yet.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (adebelizumab and irinotecan liposome) for people with advanced small cell lung cancer that got worse after first-line treatment. It aims to see if this combination works better and to find out which patients benefit the most.
This trial tests a combination of a liposome-encased chemotherapy (irinotecan), a platinum drug, an immunotherapy, and a targeted therapy (anlotinib) as a maintenance treatment for extensive small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this approach helps keep the cancer from growing after initial successful treatment.
This study tests a new drug, ifinatamab deruxtecan, against the doctor's choice of standard treatments for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has returned after initial platinum-based chemotherapy. The goal is to see if the new drug works better and if it might be a new option for you.
This trial tests a new drug called IBI3009 for people with advanced small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see how safe the drug is and how well it works against the cancer.
