NCT04923776
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether radiation treatment directed at liver metastases can be safely added to standard of care treatment for extensive stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). The current standard treatment for people who have ES-SCLC is chemotherapy including drugs called carboplatin and etoposide, that is combined with a type of immunotherapy called atezolizumab. However, patients with liver involvement of their ES-SCLC don't respond as well to this treatment. The study aims to answer whether adding radiation directed at liver metastases can improve responses to standard chemo-immunotherapy in this patient population. All study participants will get the same study intervention, which will be chemo-immunotherapy and radiation therapy.
NCT01993810
This randomized phase III trial studies proton chemoradiotherapy to see how well it works compared to photon chemoradiotherapy in treating patients with stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor, such as photon or proton beam radiation therapy, may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, carboplatin, etoposide, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether proton chemoradiotherapy is more effective than photon chemoradiotherapy in treating non-small cell lung cancer.
