LUMINANCE Trial Summary

This trial will study the safety and side effects of using durvalumab with platinum and etoposide to treat extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer who haven't had treatment before. They should be in good physical condition, have proper organ function, and weigh over 30 kg. Women must not be pregnant and participants must agree to use birth control. People can't join if they've had certain vaccines recently, previous cancer treatments for SCLC, or are on immunosuppressants.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety of Durvalumab combined with platinum (either Cisplatin or Carboplatin) plus Etoposide as a first-line treatment for patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It aims to see how well patients tolerate this combination therapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune-related reactions that could affect organs, infusion-related symptoms like fever or chills, fatigue, nausea or vomiting from chemotherapy drugs, blood count changes increasing infection risk and potential allergic reactions to any of the drugs used.
