NCT ID NCT06931626

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early-stage trial is testing a new oral drug called NMS-03305293, combined with the chemotherapy temozolomide, in 10 people with relapsed small cell lung cancer. The main goal is to check safety and tolerability, while also looking for signs that the tumors shrink. All participants have already tried standard treatments and have limited options.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

NMS-03305293 (a new PARP inhibitor drug) combined with temozolomide (a chemotherapy drug)

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with relapsed small cell lung cancer who have run out of standard therapies.

What could go wrong

This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 10 participants, so it is primarily testing safety, not effectiveness. The combination may cause side effects or fail to shrink tumors.
