About this trial

This clinical trial aims to assess whether the addition of bevacizumab to atezolizumab and chemotherapy can improve response to treatment and progression-free survival in patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) with liver metastases.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* In patients with ES-SCLC with liver metastases, can bevacizumab in combination with atezolizumab and chemotherapy prolong the length of time that the cancer does not progress? * Is bevacizumab safe and tolerable when combined with atezolizumab and chemotherapy in patients with ES-SCLC and liver metastases?

The study treatment includes two phases:

* Induction phase: bevacizumab will be administered in combination with atezolizumab and chemotherapy on a 21-day cycle for four cycles. * Maintenance: atezolizumab and bevacizumab will be administered every 21 days for up to 12 months, or until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.

Participants will undergo blood tests every 3 weeks and tumor assessments every 6 weeks.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Ability for subject to sign informed consent form and ability for subject to comply with the requirements of the study.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed ES-SCLC (per the Veterans Administration Lung Study Group staging system), and radiographic confirmation of LM at diagnosis.

Patients with history of EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer with histologically confirmed transformation to small cell lung cancer with presence of liver metastases, who are chemotherapy and immunotherapy naïve are eligible.

No prior treatment for ES-SCLC. Note: patients who have received prior chemoradiotherapy for limited-stage SCLC must have been treated with curative intent and experienced a treatment-free interval of at least six months since the last chemotherapy, radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy cycle prior to diagnosis of ES-SCLC

Disqualifiers

History of leptomeningeal disease

History of deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or any other significant thromboembolism during the 3 months prior to first dose of protocol therapy.

Inadequately controlled hypertension (defined as systolic blood pressure > 150 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure > 100 mmHg)

Anti-hypertensive therapy to achieve these parameters is allowable.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

6- month Progression Free Survival (PFS) rate

Proportion of patients with first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause (whichever occurs first)

Time frame
Start of study treatment to 6-months

Secondary outcomes

1

Progression Free Survival (PFS)

Time from first dose of study treatment to the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause (whichever occurs first), as determined by the investigator according to RECIST v1.1

Time frame
From time of first dose until death or the first occurrence of disease progression whichever occurs first, assessed up to approximately 48 months
2

Overall Survival (OS)

The length of time from date of first study treatment to death of any cause

Time frame
From time of first dose until death from any cause, assessed up to approximately 48 months
3

Objective Response Rate

Percent of patients who have either complete or partial response by CT/MRI imaging based on RECIST v1.1 criteria

Time frame
From time of first dose until time of best (maximal) response, assessed up to approximately 48 months
4

Incidence of adverse events

Incidence of adverse events related to study treatment using CTCAE 5.0

Time frame
From time of first dose until 90 days following the end of treatment, initiation of new systemic anti-cancer therapy, or death (whichever occurs first), assessed up to approximately 48 months

Other outcomes

1

Tissue and blood based biomarkers

Identify tissue or blood based biomarkers that are associated with response to treatment with induction ABCE followed by maintenance AB in ES-SCLC patients with LM

Time frame
From baseline to approximately 15 months
