Phase 3 Trial of Tarlatamab (SC vs IV) in Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer After Platinum Based First-line Chemotherapy (ES-SCLC)
A Phase 3, Open-Label, Multicenter, Randomized Study of Subcutaneous vs Intravenous Tarlatamab in Participants With Relapsed Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer After Platinum-based First-line Chemotherapy (DeLLphi-315)
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 17 Sept 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate non-inferiority in pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of subcutaneous (SC) vs intravenous (IV) tarlatamab administration and to characterize the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of SC tarlatamab in participants with relapsed extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) after platinum-based chemotherapy.
