Study Summary

This trial will test a combination of drugs for ES-SCLC. It will check safety and how well it is tolerated.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with newly diagnosed ES-SCLC who haven't had treatment yet. They need a positive PET scan showing SSTR and at least one measurable tumor lesion. People can't join if they have brain metastasis, autoimmune diseases, severe infections, recent major surgery, ECG abnormalities that pose risks, known drug hypersensitivity or are in another clinical study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE combined with carboplatin, etoposide, and tislelizumab as initial treatment for ES-SCLC. It also looks at using tislelizumab alone as ongoing maintenance therapy after the first treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
[177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE may cause radiation-related side effects like nausea and fatigue. Tislelizumab can lead to immune-related issues such as inflammation in organs. Carboplatin and etoposide might result in low blood cell counts increasing infection risk and causing tiredness.
