NCT ID NCT07510594

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 24, 2026

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests a combination of three drugs—benmelstobart (an immunotherapy), anlotinib (a targeted therapy), and standard chemotherapy—as a first treatment for people with large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the lung or similar cancers outside the lung. The study aims to see how many patients' tumors shrink significantly. It will enroll 48 adults who have not had prior treatment for advanced disease.
