BI 764532 for Small Cell Lung Cancer
Trial Summary
What is the purpose of this trial?
This study is open to adults with small cell lung cancer and other neuroendocrine cancers that are positive for the tumour marker delta-like 3 (DLL3). The study is in people with advanced cancer for whom previous treatment was not successful or no standard treatment exists. The purpose of this study is to find out the highest dose of BI 764532 and the best treatment schedule that people can tolerate. BI 764532 is an antibody-like molecule (DLL3/CD3 bispecific) that may help the immune system fight cancer. In this study, BI 764532 is given to people for the first time. That means no clinical data are available for BI 764532. Participants get BI 764532 either weekly or once every 3 weeks. If there is benefit for the participants and if they can tolerate it, the treatment is given for a maximum of 3 years. During this time, participants visit the study site about 20 times depending on the response to the treatment. Doctors record any unwanted effects and regularly check the general health of the participants.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial protocol does not specify if you must stop taking your current medications. However, you cannot participate if you are on certain treatments like systemic steroids or other anti-cancer drugs within a specific timeframe before starting the trial.
Eligibility Criteria
Adults with advanced small cell lung cancer or neuroendocrine tumors positive for DLL3, who have not had success with previous treatments or lack standard treatment options. Participants must be in good physical condition (ECOG 0-1), have at least one measurable tumor outside the brain, and their major organs must function well. Pregnant women, those on certain medications, or with other active cancers are excluded.Inclusion Criteria
