ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying a new treatment called tarlatamab for patients with advanced small cell lung cancer who have already tried at least two other treatments. The main goal of the study is to see how effective tarlatamab is in shrinking tumors or stopping their growth. This trial is currently looking for participants who are at least 18 years old, of Chinese ancestry, and have confirmed small cell lung cancer that has not responded to previous therapies.
To participate, individuals must be in relatively good health, with a minimum life expectancy of 12 weeks and no significant health issues that could interfere with the study. Participants can expect to receive tarlatamab and will be monitored closely to assess how well the treatment is working. It’s important to note that there are specific criteria that may exclude some patients, such as having certain other illnesses or previous severe reactions to similar treatments. Overall, this trial offers a potential new option for those struggling with advanced small cell lung cancer.
