Registration Number

Brief Summary

Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) has a high degree of malignancy and extremely poor prognosis, slow progress in the treatment of ES-SCLC, and a more ideal posterior therapy needs to be explored. This is an I / II, phase umbrella study to explore afterline treatment options following progression of frontline platinum-containing therapy for small cell lung cancer.

This study includes 2 parts:

Part 1 will enroll patients with end of first-line platinum-containing therapy and progression interval of less than 180 days or more of second-line therapy (no first-line relapse time required).

Part 2 will enroll patients with end of first-line platinum-containing therapy greater than 180 days.

Based on the optimal selection of patients with recurrent broad-stage small cell lung cancer with different molecular and clinical characteristics, we further explored different treatment modes suitable for different populations through umbrella cohort studies.

Detailed Description

Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) has a high degree of malignancy and extremely poor prognosis, slow progress in the treatment of ES-SCLC, and a more ideal posterior therapy needs to be explored. This is an I / II, phase umbrella study to explore afterline treatment options following progression of frontline platinum-containing therapy for small cell lung cancer.

This study includes 2 parts:

Part 1 will enroll patients with end of first-line platinum-containing therapy and progression interval of less than 180 days or more of second-line therapy (no first-line relapse time required).

Cohort 1 patients enrolled with N subtype were given either Serplulimab plus second-line chemotherapy or other treatment as assessed by the physician; cohort 2 patients enrolled with subtype P and subtype A with low BCL-2 expression were given Fluzoparib with Temozolomide ; cohort 3 patients enrolled with subtype Y received Serplulimab plus second-line chemotherapy ;

Part 2 will enroll patients with end of first-line platinum-containing therapy greater than 180 days.

Cohort 4 patients with low expression in SLFN11 were given Serplulimab plus first-line chemotherapy ; cohort 5 patients with high SLFN11 expression were given Serplulimab plus Lurbinectedin.

Based on the optimal selection of patients with recurrent broad-stage small cell lung cancer with different molecular and clinical characteristics, we further explored different treatment modes suitable for different populations through umbrella cohort studies, which is of great significance to prolong the survival of patients.

4. The ECOG / WHO fitness status score is 0 to 1. 5. Expected survival time must be at least 12 weeks. 6. Participants agreed to perform the biopsy and could obtain enough tissue specimens for whole-exon sequencing, transcriptome sequencing, and multiplex fluorescent immunohistochemical detection.

7.The patient has sufficient important organ functions during screening (requiring no blood transfusion, no use of hematopoietic stimulating factors or human albumin preparations within 14 days prior to screening), and the specific definition is as follows:

  1. Blood routine: Absolute neutrophil count (Absolute neutrophil count, ANC) 1.5109 / L; Platelet Count (Platelet, PLT)≥100×109/L; Hemoglobin content (Hemoglobin, HGB) 90 g / L;

  2. liver function: serum total bilirubin (Total bilirubin, TBIL) 1.5 Upper Normal Value (Upper limit of normal value, ULN), Patients with liver metastasis or with proven Gilbert syndrome, TBIL≤3×ULN. For subjects without liver metastases, Alanine aminotransferase (Alanine aminotransferase, ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (Aspartate transferase, AST) ≤2.5×ULN, Subjects with liver metastases, ALT or AST 5 ULN;

  3. Renal function: creatinine clearance calculated according to the Cockcroft-Gault method (Clearance of creatinine, CCr) 60 mL/min;

  4. Coagulation: activated partial thromboplastin time (Activated partial thromboplastin time, APTT) and the international standardized ratio (International normalized ratio, INR) 1.5 ULN (subjects receiving anticoagulation are within treatment range);

  5. cardiac function criteria: echocardiogram (Echocardiography, ECHO) showed a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) greater than 50%.

    8. The blood pregnancy test must be negative within 7 days before the first use of the test drug; fertile qualified patients (male and female) must agree to use reliable contraceptive methods (hormone or barrier method or abstinence) with their partner during the trial and at least 6 months after the last dose. Ferproductive patients were defined as sexually mature and with biologically underlying fertility.

    9. Crias for molecular typing selection:

    1. characteristics of transcription factor subtypes:
    2. (1) SCLC-A and N types belong to neuroendocrine types, and SCLC-P and-I are cells with non-neuroendocrine subtypes. SCLC-A and N had significantly higher expression of neuroendocrine markers (chromaffin A (CgA) and synaptic vesicle protein (Syn)), while SCLC-P and I highly expressed the neuroendocrine inhibitory gene RE1 silent transcription factor (REST).
    3. (2) SCLC-I is the most characteristic of stromal cells, while SCLC-A has the most characteristic of epithelial cells. High expression markers of SCLC-I of stromal cells: VIM and AXL. Most of the SCLC cells expressing the thyroid transcription factor (TTF 1) belong to the SCLC-A type.
    4. (3) The vast majority of TP 53 and RB 1 mutations do not differ in subtype classification, and the classification of subtypes is not associated with specific gene mutations.
    5. In conclusion, SCLC-A is neuroendocrine with epithelial cells, expressing TTF 1; SCLC-N, also neuroendocrine, but not TTF 1; SCLC-P and SCLC-I are non-neuroendocrine, while SCLC-I has a subtype characterized by mesenchymal cells.
    6. H-score method (integral system): IHC test of tissue specimens to calculate the product of the percentage of positive tumor cell nuclear staining (0-100%) observed under the optical microscope and its staining intensity (intensity, 0,1 +, 2 +, 3 +), to obtain H-score (range 0-300) 13.
    7. SLFN11:1 + under IHC score is positive 13, and the cut-off value is usually selected 10,10, which is defined as high expression 28.
    8. BCL-2: The average copy number per spot was calculated based on the minimum and maximum number of Bcl-2 FISH signal from each nucleus in each tissue site. Copy arrays were constructed based on the absolute gene copy number using the following criteria: 1 to 2 signals with average copy number <2.5; 3 to 4 signals, average copy number 2.5 and <4.5; 5 to 6 signals, average copy number 4.5 and <6.5; and 7 to 10 signals, with average copy number 6.5 29.
    9. c-Myc: IHC 1 +, 2 + and 3 + were positive; 0 was negative.
    10. If two or more markers in the same class have an H score of more than 10, then multiple markers in the tumor may be positive. The predominant marker was defined as the marker with the highest H-Score.
    11. TROP-2: IHC stains at least 10% of tumor cells with an intensity score of 1 + (weak), and 2 + (moderate) and 3 + (strong) are defined as positive 22. At the same time, ANPY will be tested simultaneously (before the start of treatment) and submitted for transcriptomic testing.

    10, with at least 1 measurable lesion according to RECIST 1.1.
