About this trial

Based on the preclinical rationale for combining surufatinib with immunotherapy, and the clinical efficacy observed with surufatinib in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC), the investigators hypothesize that incorporating surufatinib into the ADRIATIC regimen could further enhance survival in LS-SCLC. To evaluate this approach, the investigators plan to conduct a single-arm Phase II study to explore the safety and efficacy of concurrent chemoradiotherapy combined with toripalimab and surufatinib in treating LS-SCLC.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Informed Consent: An informed consent form, signed and dated, must be provided before any steps in the study are performed.

Age: Males or females aged 18 to 75 years.

Diagnosis: Histologically or cytologically confirmed small cell lung cancer (SCLC).

Stage: Stage I-III (AJCC/UICC 8th edition TNM staging), where all lesions can be included in a single radical radiotherapy plan (i.e., limited-stage disease). Stage I-II must be inoperable.

Disqualifiers

Participation in Another Clinical Trial: Simultaneous participation in another clinical trial, unless it is an observational (non-interventional) study.

Mixed Histology: Histological subtype of mixed small cell and non-small cell lung cancer (SCLC).

Extensive-Stage SCLC: Diagnosis of extensive-stage SCLC.

Malignant Effusions: Pathologically confirmed malignant pleural effusion or pericardial effusion.

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Chemotherapy

    Drug

    Etoposide combined with cisplatin or carboplatin, administered every three weeks for a total of four cycles.

  • Immunotherapy

    Drug

    Toripalimab was administered concurrently with chemotherapy, every three weeks for four cycles.

  • Angio-immuno kinase inhibitor

    Drug

    Oral surufatinib 200 mg once daily (q.d.), given on days 1-14 of each chemotherapy cycle.

  • radiotherapy

    Radiation

    Thoracic radiotherapy will begin no later than the start of the third chemotherapy cycle.

  • Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation

    Radiation

    PCI is recommended after the completion of chemoradiotherapy.

  • Consolidation Therapy with Toripalimab and Surufatinib

    Drug

    Patients achieving complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) following chemoradiotherapy will receive consolidation therapy. Toripalimab: 240 mg intravenously on day 1, every three weeks. Surufatinib: 200 mg orally on days 1-14, every three weeks.
