Using Biomarker Tests to Select and Test New, Personalized Treatments for Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer, PRISM Study

This phase II trial tests how well biomarker tests on patients tumor tissue works in selecting personalized treatments for patients with extensive stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). Biomarker tests look for certain features in cancer cells that may give doctors more information about what is driving cancer and how to treat it. Based on the biomarker test results, study doctors can determine the subtype of ES-SCLC that study treatments can target. This study also tests different types of maintenance treatment for ES-SCLC with drugs durvalumab, saruparib, ceralasertib or monalizumab. Maintenance treatment is given after initial treatment and is given to help keep the cancer under control and prevent it from getting worse. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab and monalizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Saruparib is a PARP inhibitor. PARP is a protein that helps repair damaged deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Blocking PARP may prevent cancer cells from repairing their damaged DNA, causing them to die. PARP inhibitors are a type of targeted therapy. Ceralasertib may stop the growth of tumor cells and may kill them by blocking some of the enzymes needed for tumor cell growth. Giving biomarker selected personalized maintenance treatment with durvalumab, saruparib, ceralasertib or monalizumab may work better in treating patients with ES-SCLC.
