Durvalumab and Ablative Radiation in Small Cell Lung Cancer (DARES)
A Phase II Trial of Durvalumab and Ablative Radiation in Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (DARES)
This this study is for individuals who have treatment-naïve extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (small cell lung cancer that wont respond to treatment). Doctors leading this study hope to learn if combining durvalumab, carboplatin and etoposide with hyofractionated ablative radiation therapy (radiation focused on certain parts of the body) will help treat your cancer and improve how long you can live with extensive-stage small cell cancer without it getting worse (progression-free survival). Your participation in this research will last about 48 months.
Durvalumab along with chemotherapy has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of small cell lung cancer along with chemotherapy. This study is testing the addition of radiation to durvalumab and chemotherapy.

Tumors larger than 65 cc can be partially treated.

Exclusion Criteria:
Patients should not enter the study if any of the following exclusion criteria are fulfilled:

- All patients at screening should have an MRI (preferred) or CT each preferably with IV contrast of the brain prior to study entry. Patients whose brain metastases have been treated may participate provided they show radiographic stability (defined as 2 brain images, both of which are obtained after treatment to the brain metastases. These imaging scans should both be obtained at least two weeks apart and show no evidence of intracranial progression). In addition, any neurologic symptoms that developed either as a result of the brain metastases or their treatment must have resolved or be stable either, without the use of steroids, or are stable on a steroid dose of ≤10mg/day of prednisone or its equivalent for at least 14 days prior to the start of treatment. Brain metastases will not be recorded as RECIST Target Lesions at baseline.

- Active infection including tuberculosis (clinical evaluation that includes clinical history, physical examination and radiographic findings, and tuberculosis (TB) testing in line with local practice), hepatitis B (known positive HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) result), hepatitis C, or HIV. Patients with a past or resolved HBV infection (defined as the presence of hepatitis B core antibody [anti-HBc] and absence of HBsAg) are eligible. Patients positive for hepatitis C (HCV) antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction is negative for hepatitis C (HCV) ribonucleic acid (RNA).
Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days before the first dose of durvalumab. The following are exceptions to this criterion:
- Intranasal, inhaled, topical steroids, or local steroid injections (e.g., intra articular injection)
- Systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses not to exceed 10 mg/day of prednisone or its equivalent
- Steroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., CT scan premedication)

- Known allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs or any of the study drug excipients.

---|---|
Experimental: Participants With Extensive Small Cell Lung Cancer (All Participants)
This arm will involve all participants in the study who have extensive small cell lung cancer that has not responded to previous treatments. All participants will receive the same treatment of study drugs and radiation treatment in "cycles" (a specific window of time). You will receive up to four 21-day cycles of chemotherapy using carboplatin, etoposide and durvalumab (immunotherapy) as part of a standard care treatment plan recommended by your doctor. These drugs will be combined with ablative radiation treatment during the second cycle of chemotherapy. After completing these four cycles of chemotherapy (with radiation treatment added in cycle 2), you will continue to receive a fixed dose of durvalumab until your cancer progresses, you experience serious side effects, you decide to no longer be part of the study or the study doctor request to take you off the study for medical reasons. |
Ablative radiation therapy is a highly focused radiation treatment that gives an intense dose of radiation concentrated on a tumor or very specific area of the body, while limiting the radiation that affects surrounding organs.
Other Names:
Durvalumab is an immunotherapy drug -- a drug used to help boost your immune response to fight cancer.
Other Names:
Etoposide is a chemotherapy drug approved for different kinds of cancer, including small cell lung cancer.
Other Names:
Carboplatin is a chemotherapy drug approved for different kinds of cancer, including small cell lung cancer.
