Immunotherapy in Combination With Chemotherapy in Small-cell Lung Cancer (PAVE)
Phased Avelumab Combined With Chemotherapy as First-line Treatment for Patients With Advanced Small-cell Lung Cancer (SCLC)
PAVE(Phased Avelumab combined with chemotherapy as first-line treatment for patients with advanced small-cell lung cancer) is a Greek, investigator- initiated, single arm open- label phase II study of Avelumab in combination with cisplatin or carboplatin/ etoposide.
The study will include an initial safety run-in, open-label, singlearm part (Part 1), and the actual phase II study (Part 2). The total number of patients will not change (the safety run-in patients will be included in the final total number of participants). The safety run-in period will not alter the total study timelines, as phase II accrual will follow immediately after the safety run-in.

Detailed Description
Advanced small cell lung cancer (SCLC) remains a disease with dismal prognosis and new therapeutics are urgently needed. SCLC is notably chemosensitive and first-line chemotherapy with platinum analogs and etoposide is associated with high rates of initial objective responses that unfortunately do not last long.
The primary endpoint for study design is 1-year PFS rate, where according to RECIST v1.1 PFS is determined as the time from the date of study entry to the date of progression, death from any cause or date of last contact.Secondary End Point is the evaluation of efficacy of the study treatment in terms of Overall Survival (OS), Best Overall Response (BOR), Objective Response Rate (ORR) and Duration of Response (DOR).
Evaluation of the safety of the study treatment by assessing Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs).
Evaluation of the Quality of Life of patients receiving the study the study treatment. Evaluation of potential biomarkers on fresh or archival sample,of formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tumor tissue block or a minimum of 10 unstained tumor tissue sections. Moreover 10 ml of EDTA-stored blood sample will be collected as well.

Time Frame: Time from inclusion in the trial up to 30 months.
|
Best Overall Response (BOR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST Version 1.1).
Disappearance of all evidence of target and non-target lesions.
PR: At least 30% reduction from baseline in the sum of the longest diameter (SLD) of all lesions.

Change from baseline in European Quality Of Life 5-dimensions (EQ-5D-5L) Health Outcome Questionnaire
Time Frame: On Day 1 every 21 days for 18 weeks then monthly up to 30 months.
|
The EQ-5D-5L Health Outcome Questionnaire is a measure of health status that provides a simple descriptive profile and a single index value.
The EQ-5D-5L defines health in terms of mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression.
The 5 items are combined to generate health profiles.
These profiles were converted to a continuous single index score using a one to one matching.
The lowest possible score is -0.59 (unable to walk, unable to self-care, unable to do usual activities, extreme pain or discomfort, extreme anxiety or depression) and the highest is 1.00 (no problems in all 5 dimensions).
|
On Day 1 every 21 days for 18 weeks then monthly up to 30 months.
|

Time Frame: On Day 1 every 21 days for 18 weeks then monthly up to 30 months.
|
EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-question tool used to assess the overall quality of life (QoL) in cancer subjects.
It consists of 15 domains: 1 global health status (GHS) scale, 5 functional scales (Physical, role, cognitive, emotional, social), and 9 symptom scales/items (Fatigue, nausea and vomiting, pain, dyspnea, sleep disturbance, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, financial impact.
The EORTC QLQ-C30 GHS/QoL score ranges from 0 to 100; High score indicates better GHS/QoL.
Score 0 represents: very poor physical condition and QoL.
Score 100 represents: excellent overall physical condition and QoL.
