About this trial
This prospective clinical study aims to evaluate and observe the efficacy and safety of Atezolizumab combined with Apatinib in maintenance therapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer using a single-arm trial design.
The study is planned to be conducted in Shaanxi Province, China, with an initial target enrollment of 60 patients. The study commenced in February 2024, and recruitment is expected to conclude around December 2025, with the trial anticipated to end by December 2026. Assuming no occurrences such as withdrawal of informed consent by subjects, intolerable adverse drug reactions, or investigator-assessed unsuitability for further participation, each participant's estimated duration of study treatment will continue until radiographically confirmed tumor progression.

Treatments tested in this trial
Adebrelimab combined with Apatinib
DrugEach treatment cycle spans 3 weeks. Sequential medication administration begins on the first day of each cycle: Atezolizumab is administered at a dosage of 1200mg on day 1, every 3 weeks, while Apatinib is given orally at a dosage of 250mg daily from day 1 to day 14, every 3 weeks, with a one-week hiatus following two weeks of continuous intake. Administration timing allows for a window of ±5 days. Subjects are required to undergo comprehensive assessments, including vital signs monitoring, anthropometric measurements, physical examinations, laboratory analyses, and performance status evaluations, to assess treatment tolerability for continuation.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Progression-free survival
Progression free survival (PFS) refers to the time from recording the first chemotherapy treatment to the date of disease progression, as assessed by researchers.
Secondary outcomes
Overall Survival
Overall survival (OS) refers to the time that researchers evaluate from recording the first chemotherapy to death (of any cause).
Objective response rate
Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) using Investigator assessments, is defined as the number (%) of patients with response of Complete Response or Partial Response, will be assessed up to 1 years.
Complete Response rate
Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) using Investigator assessments, is defined as the number (%) of patients with response of Complete Response, will be assessed up to 1 years.
Duration of Response
Duration of Response(DoR)refers to the time from the first assessment as CR or PR to the first assessment as PD or (due to any reason) death
