Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults 18–75 years with confirmed NSCLC or SCLC, at least one measurable lesion, ECOG 0–1, expected survival ≥12 weeks, and adequate organ function are the ideal candidates.

Probably not a fit

People with uncontrolled symptomatic cardiovascular disease, prior steroid‑treated pneumonitis or active interstitial lung disease, those on recent systemic corticosteroids or other immunosuppressants, or known HIV infection are unlikely to be eligible or to benefit.

What this trial studies

This is an open‑label, multicenter phase II trial testing SKB518 monotherapy in adults with histologically confirmed non‑small cell or small cell lung cancer who have at least one measurable lesion and ECOG performance status 0–1. Eligible participants receive SKB518 until radiographic disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal, or other protocol‑specified discontinuation. The study is focused on safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti‑tumor activity using RECIST v1.1 for response evaluation. Although tislelizumab and carboplatin are listed among interventions, the protocol specifies SKB518 as monotherapy for enrolled subjects.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, SKB518 could offer a new treatment option that controls tumor growth with an acceptable safety profile for some people with lung cancer.

How similar studies have gone: Related approaches such as PD‑1/PD‑L1 inhibitors combined with chemotherapy have shown benefit in lung cancer, but SKB518 itself is investigational with limited published data.
