Trilaciclib and Lurbinectedin for the Treatment of Patients with Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer
This phase II trial tests whether trilaciclib with lurbinectedin works in treating patients with extensive stage small cell lung cancer. Trilaciclib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of certain substances in the body to protect the cells in the bone marrow and immune system from damage during chemotherapy. Lurbinectedin injection is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by slowing or stopping the growth of cancer cells in the body. Giving trilaciclib may help minimize the side effects of lurbinectedin and therefore improve the safety of lurbinectedin for the treatment of small cell lung cancer.

OUTLINE:
Patients receive trilaciclib intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes and lurbinectedin IV over 60 minutes on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, and/or positron emission tomography (PET) with CT throughout the trial. Patients undergo collection of blood samples throughout the trial.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for 5 years.
