Study Summary

This trial will test if monoclonal antibody therapy can help patients with small cell lung cancer that has come back or hasn't responded to treatment.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with small cell lung cancer that's come back or hasn't responded to treatment. They should have had chemotherapy, possibly with radiotherapy, and be generally healthy otherwise. No brain metastases, serious liver issues, or active infections like hepatitis B/C or HIV are allowed. Participants must not be pregnant and agree to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the effectiveness of a monoclonal antibody therapy in patients with relapsed or refractory small cell lung cancer. This phase I trial aims to see how well this therapy targets and kills cancer cells while sparing normal ones.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Monoclonal antibodies might cause immune reactions leading to inflammation in various organs, allergic responses during infusion into the bloodstream, fatigue due to immune system activation, potential blood disorders from bone marrow effects, and increased risk of infection.
