ClinicaliQ Trial Snapshot
  • Safety and Efficacy of BNT327, an Investigational Therapy in Combination With Chemotherapy for Patients With Untreated Small-cell Lung Cancer — Recruiting • Phase III • Oncology • NCT06712355.
  • Treatment being tested: BNT327 (pumitamig), a novel investigational therapy, combined with standard chemotherapy (etoposide/carboplatin) versus the current standard of care atezolizumab plus chemotherapy in patients with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer.
  • Patient eligibility overview: Adults with previously untreated extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) who are suitable candidates for chemotherapy; this represents a treatment-Phase IIIïve population requiring systemic therapy.

What This Trial Is Studying

This is a Phase III, multisite, randomized, double-blinded study to investigate pumitamig (BNT327) combined with chemotherapy (etoposide/carboplatin) compared to atezolizumab combined with chemotherapy (etoposide/carboplatin) for the treatment of participants with previously untreated extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC).

Eligibility Snapshot
  • : * Have histologically or cytologically confirmed ES-SCLC (using the AJCC [American Joint Committee on Cancer] tumor node metastasis staging system combined with Veterans Administration Lung Study Group [VALG]'s two stage classification scheme). For AJCC tumor node metastasis staging system: AJCC 8th edition stage IV (T any, N any, M1a/b/c), or T3~4 for multiple lung nodules or tumor/nodule volume that cannot be encompassed in a tolerable radiotherapy plan. * Have not had prior systemic therapy for ES-SCLC. However, participants with prior chemoradiotherapy for limited-stage-SCLC must have been treated with curative intent and had a treatment-free interval of at least 6 months after the last chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or chemoradiotherapy before diagnosis of ES-SCLC to be eligible. * Have at least one measurable lesion as the targeted lesion based on RECIST v1.1. Lesions treated after prior local treatment (radiotherapy, ablation, interventional procedures, etc.) are generally not considered as target lesions. If the lesion with prior local treatment is the only targeted lesion, evidence-based radiology must be provided to demonstrate disease progression (the single bone metastasis or the single central nervous system metastasis should not be considered as a measurable lesion). * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or…
