First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a combination of three drugs—niraparib, temozolomide, and atezolizumab—in people with advanced solid tumors or extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to find the best dose and see if the combination works better than atezolizumab alone as maintenance therapy after initial chemotherapy. The trial involves 59 participants and is currently active but not recruiting.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

niraparib, temozolomide, and atezolizumab

What this could lead to

If successful, this combination could offer a more effective maintenance therapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer, potentially extending the time before the cancer progresses.

What could go wrong

This is an early-phase trial (phase 1b/2) with a small number of participants (59). The combination may cause significant side effects, and it is not yet known if it will improve survival compared to standard treatment.
