Study Summary

This trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of using two drugs, toripalimab and tifcemalimab, either alone or together, as a follow-up treatment for patients with limited

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with limited-stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC) who've completed chemoradiotherapy without disease progression. They should have responded well to initial treatment, be in good physical condition, and have proper organ function. Women of childbearing age and men with partners of childbearing potential must agree to contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and effectiveness of toripalimab alone or combined with tifcemalimab as additional therapy post-chemoradiotherapy in LS-SCLC patients. Both drugs are monoclonal antibodies; one targets PD-1 and the other BTLA, but neither is yet approved for this cancer type.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
As both toripalimab and tifcemalimab are monoclonal antibodies, potential side effects may include allergic reactions at the injection site, fatigue, fever, chills, body aches or pains similar to flu symptoms.

Answered by AI

What are the main goals that this clinical trial aims to achieve?

"The primary focus of this investigation, lasting around 3 years, is Progression-free survival (PFS). Among the secondary objectives are assessing the 2-year OS rate to compare and assess tifcemalimab and toripalimab (Arm A) versus placebo (Arm C) as consolidation therapy after CRT for patients with LS-SCLC. Additional secondary outcomes include evaluating the duration of response (DoR) by comparing tifcemalimab and toripalimab (Arm A) against placebo (Arm C), along with investigating PFS by comparing toripalimab (Arm B) versus placebo"
