New drug combo aimed at tough cancers pulled before starting

NCT ID NCT07328490

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study planned to test a combination of two drugs—tarlatamab and sacituzumab govitecan—in adults with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer or extrapulmonary neuroendocrine cancer that had returned or not responded to prior treatment. The goal was to find a safe dose and see if the drugs could shrink tumors. However, the trial was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for aggressive lung and neuroendocrine cancers that have stopped responding to standard therapy.
