Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 and older with extensive stage small-cell lung cancer who have previously received platinum-based chemotherapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with active infections requiring systemic therapy or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This study investigates the effects of Trilaciclib on reducing myelosuppression in patients with extensive stage small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) who are receiving Lurbinectedin after failing platinum-based chemotherapy. The trial aims to improve the safety and tolerability of Lurbinectedin by mitigating its side effects, particularly myelosuppression, which is a common and serious complication. Participants will be closely monitored for their response to treatment and any adverse effects. The study is designed for patients who have previously been treated with platinum agents and PD1 or PDL1 inhibitors.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could enhance the treatment outcomes for patients with small-cell lung cancer by reducing harmful side effects associated with current therapies.
How similar studies have gone: While the combination of Trilaciclib and Lurbinectedin is a novel approach, previous studies have shown promising results with Lurbinectedin in treating small-cell lung cancer, indicating potential for success.
