An Exploratory Study of Lurbinectedin With Radiotherapy in SCLC With Single-lesion Progression After First Course Treatment

June 14, 2026 updated by: Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences
This exploratory trial aims to determine if it is safe to use radiotherapy and lurbinectedin to treat SCLC with Single-lesion progression after first course treatment. Lurbinectedin kills tumor cells by blocks transcription and damages the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of tumor cells, which is similar to the way radiation kills tumor cells. Traditional chemotherapy and radiotherapy is a routine medical treatment for locally-advanced SCLC, but the combination is always toxic. This trial may help understand if treating patients with lurbinectedin and radiotherapy could cause less side effects.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

To describe the safety in terms of radiation therapy (RT) in combination with lurbinectedin in SCLC patients with Single-lesion progression after first course treatment.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

To evaluate the preliminary efficacy of RT plus lurbinectedin, as assessed by Progression free survival (PFS) and Overall survival (OS).

OUTLINE:

Patients receive 2 cycles of lurbinectedin combined with radiotherapy followed by lurbinectedin alone. Patients receive lurbinectedin intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on day 1 of each cycle. G-CSF（Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor） will be used for prophylaxis.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.
