Who can take part
AI summary
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer who have not yet had any drug treatment for it.
- Age
- 18 to 75 years
- Sex
- All sexes can join.
- Disease stage
- Extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) per VALG staging, confirmed by tissue or cell tests, with at least one lesion that can be measured (RECIST 1.1).
- Earlier treatment
- No earlier systemic therapy for ES-SCLC. No earlier chest radiotherapy for SCLC. No earlier anti-angiogenic drugs (for example anlotinib, bevacizumab) or anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Brain metastases that cause symptoms
- Fluid build-up that needs repeated drainage
- Tumor growing into major blood vessels, or high risk of fatal bleeding
- Bleeding problems, or coughing up blood (more than 1 tablespoon daily within 3 months)
- Blood clot events within 6 months, or active autoimmune disease needing systemic treatment within 2 years

- At least one measurable lesion as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria
- Age 18-75 years
- ECOG performance status of 0-2
- Life expectancy of ≥3 months
- Adequate hematologic and organ function:; Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 10\^9/L; Platelet count ≥ 100 × 10\^9/L; Hemoglobin ≥ 80 g/L; Creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min; Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN); AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 × ULN; Albumin ≥ 28 g/L; INR and APTT ≤ 1.5 × ULN; Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50%
- For females of childbearing potential: negative serum pregnancy test within 3 days prior to dosing and agreement to use highly effective contraception
- For males: agreement to use barrier contraception
- Willing and able to provide written informed consent and comply with study procedures; **Exclusion Criteria:**
- Symptomatic brain metastases. (Asymptomatic, treated, and stable brain metastases for ≥1 month without steroids are allowed)
- Prior thoracic radiotherapy for SCLC
- Prior treatment with anti-angiogenic agents (e.g., anlotinib, bevacizumab) or anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapies
- Factors affecting oral medication intake (e.g., inability to swallow, major gastrointestinal resection)
- Uncontrolled effusions requiring repeated drainage (pleural, pericardial, or ascites)
- Imaging evidence of tumor invasion of major blood vessels or high risk of fatal hemorrhage as judged by the investigator
- History of significant bleeding tendency or coagulopathy, including clinically significant hemoptysis (>1 tablespoon daily within 3 months) or significant bleeding within 4 weeks prior to enrollment
- Major surgical procedure, open biopsy, or significant traumatic injury within 28 days prior to enrollment
- Arterial/venous thrombotic events within 6 months prior to enrollment (e.g., cerebrovascular accident, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism)
- Active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment within 2 years prior to first dose
- Any other condition that, in the investigator's judgment, increases risk or renders the patient unsuitable for the study

About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
This is a phase II study evaluating a new combination therapy for untreated extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The treatment involves an initial phase with the drug Bemotuzumab plus standard chemotherapy and anlotinib, followed by a phase combining Bemotuzumab, anlotinib, and chest radiation. The primary objectives are to assess the efficacy of this approach in delaying cancer growth (progression-free survival) and to evaluate its safety in approximately 25 patients.
The group in the trial
- Experimental GroupTreatment being tested
Participants receive a multi-phase experimental regimen. Induction (4 cycles, q3w): Bemotuzumab (1200 mg IV, Day 1) combined with investigator's choice of platinum-etoposide chemotherapy (Carboplatin AUC=5 or Cisplatin 75-80 mg/m² on Day 1, plus Etoposide 100 mg/m² IV on Days 1-3) and oral Anlotinib (12 mg once daily on Days 1-14, then 7 days off). Consolidation (2 cycles, q3w): Bemotuzumab (same dose) + Anlotinib (same schedule) with concurrent hypofractionated thoracic radiotherapy (5 Gy per fraction for 5 fractions). Maintenance: Bemotuzumab (q3w) + Anlotinib (same schedule) until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or other withdrawal criteria. Anlotinib dose may be reduced (12mg → 10mg → 8mg) for managing toxicity.
Treatment: Bemotuzumab + Anlotinib + Chemotherapy + Radiotherapy
