- Brief Summary
This study is a multi-cohort, open-label, multi-center exploratory clinical research designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Efbemalenograstim alfa Injection in preventing neutropenia (reduction in absolute neutrophil count, ANC) in solid tumor patients undergoing immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) combined chemotherapy. A total of 200 solid tumor patients who are scheduled to receive at least 2 cycles of ICI combined chemotherapy will be enrolled. The study is divided into three cohorts:
Cohort 1: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients receiving ICI combined with chemotherapy (etoposide + carboplatin/cisplatin).
Cohort 2: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients receiving ICI combined with chemotherapy (platinum-based/taxane, pemetrexed/platinum).
Cohort 3: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients receiving ICI combined with chemotherapy (TP, which stands for cisplatin + taxane).
- Detailed Description
This study is a multi-cohort, open-label, multi-center exploratory clinical trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of Efbemalenograstim alfa Injection in preventing neutropenia (reduction in absolute neutrophil count, ANC) in solid tumor patients undergoing immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) combined chemotherapy. It plans to enroll 200 solid tumor patients who are scheduled to receive at least 2 cycles of ICI combined chemotherapy. The study is divided into three cohorts:
Cohort 1: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients receiving ICI combined with chemotherapy (etoposide + carboplatin/cisplatin).
Cohort 2: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients receiving ICI combined with chemotherapy (platinum-based/taxane, pemetrexed/platinum).
Cohort 3: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients receiving ICI combined with chemotherapy (TP, which stands for cisplatin + taxane).
Eligible patients will receive Efbemalenograstim alfa Injection (20 mg/dose, subcutaneous injection) 24-72 hours after the end of each chemotherapy cycle, from the 1st to the 4th cycle of ICI combined chemotherapy. Investigators must ensure that the first cycle of chemotherapy is administered at the recommended dose according to the protocol. For the 2nd to 4th cycles, dose delays or adjustments due to toxicity are allowed, and investigators may also determine the individual chemotherapy cycles and drug doses based on the patient\'s specific condition during these cycles. After completing 4 cycles of ICI combined chemotherapy and evaluation, patients will receive subsequent treatment according to standard clinical practice.

Patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed stage IV small cell lung cancer (SCLC) (as per the 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC)) or T3-4 SCLC with multiple pulmonary nodules or tumors/nodules too large to be included in a tolerable radiotherapy plan, stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (as per the 8th edition of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) Thoracic Oncology Staging Manual), or stage IV esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (excluding adenosquamous carcinoma) who are not eligible for radical therapy;
-
Patients who have not previously received systemic anti-tumor therapy for advanced/metastatic disease. For patients who have received neoadjuvant/adjuvant and radical concurrent chemoradiotherapy, screening is allowed if the time from the last chemotherapy to recurrence or progression exceeds 6 months. For patients who have received radiotherapy alone, screening is allowed after disease progression;
-
Patients planned to receive immunotherapy combined with at least 2 cycles of chemotherapy regimens with a high risk of severe neutropenia complicated by febrile neutropenia (FN) or medium FN risk regimens combined with ≥ 1 patient-specific risk factor. According to the "Chinese Expert Consensus on Diagnosis and Treatment of Neutropenia Induced by Chemotherapy for Cancer (2023 Version)", patient-specific factors are also crucial in influencing the risk of FN. The patient factors that increase the risk of FN mainly include: (1) Age > 65 years and receiving full-dose chemotherapy; (2) Prior chemotherapy or radiotherapy; (3) Persistent neutropenia (>10 days); (4) Bone marrow invasion by tumor; (5) Recent surgery and/or open trauma; (6) Poor overall physical condition with comorbidities such as liver (serum bilirubin > 2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN)), kidney (creatinine clearance ≤ 50 ml/min), heart, lung, endocrine, and other underlying diseases; (7) Poor nutritional status; (8) Chronic immunosuppression, such as human immunodeficiency virus infection, organ transplantation, and long-term immunosuppression after transplantation; (9) Advanced disease.
