NCT ID NCT06745323

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This phase 2 trial is testing tarlatamab, an experimental drug given by IV, in 252 adults with small cell lung cancer that has worsened after platinum-based chemotherapy. The main goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors (partial or complete response). Researchers will also monitor how long any response lasts and track drug levels in the blood. The study is active but no longer recruiting participants.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
tarlatamab (a drug given by IV infusion)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a new treatment option that helps control small cell lung cancer by shrinking tumors or slowing disease progression.
What could go wrong
This is a mid-stage trial with no placebo group, so results may not be definitive. The drug may cause side effects, and not all participants may respond.
