Brief Summary

Randomized phase 2, multicenter, biomarker directed clinical trial with a safety lead-in to assess the efficacy of Stenoparib plus Temozolomide (TMZ) in relapsed Small Cell Lung Cancer patients. Participants will receive either a combination of oral Stenoparib at the highest tolerated dose with oral Temozolomide 40mg daily or standard of care Lurbinectedin for 21-day cycles. The Dose limiting toxicity period will be 1 cycle of 21 days. This study will explore if the biomarkers the investigators test predict sensitivity to the combination of Stenoparib plus TMZ and therefore leads to a better treatment response. There are two potential tests of biomarkers that can predict who would benefit from the oral combination of Stenoparib with Temozolomide (TMZ), but they have not been evaluated. This study will test for this sensitivity using a biomarker (found in the blood that may be related to how a person reacts to a drug). The study will include 9 participants for the safety evaluation of the Stenoparib+TMZ group and 5 participants for the standard of care Lurbinectedin safety group. We will first determine safety dose for the experiment arm which, will include 3 groups with 3 participants in each group. Three doses of Stenoparib will be evaluated for toxicity. The initial starting dose of Stenoparib will be 200mg po QD. Once the maximum tolerated dose has been determined, participants will be assigned to one of the two groups in the phase 2 portion. Group 1 will be patients that test negative for the biomarker and will receive treatment with Lurbinectedin as per standard of care guidelines. Group 2 will be patients that test positive for the biomarker that will be randomly assigned to either the combination of Stenoparib plus Temozolomide (TMZ) or Lurbinectedin.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age 18 years or older at the time of consent.
  • Histological or cytological diagnosis of extensive-stage small cell lung cancer.
  • Patients must have received one prior line of systemic therapy.
  • Patients must have received first-line therapy with Carboplatin and Etoposide.
  • If patient is re-treated with Carboplatin and Etoposide at least 6 months or more after first regimen, this will still be considered one line of
  • treatment and they will qualify for this trial.
  • Patients could have received immunotherapy in combination with the chemotherapy regimen.
  • Patients who have received Tarlatamab as second line treatment are allowed.
  • ECOG Performance status 0-2.
  • Measurable disease as per RECIST v1.1 (NOTE: Previously irradiated lesions are eligible as a target lesion only if there is documented progression of the lesion after irradiation).
  • Adequate bone marrow, liver, and renal function, as assessed by the following laboratory requirements:
  • ANC 1.5

  • Hemoglobin 9 g/dL or 5.6 mmol/L

  • +6 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Clinically significant acute infection requiring systemic antibacterial, antifungal, or antiviral therapy. (Suppressive therapy for chronic infections allowed, for example: Subjects with HIV/AIDS with adequate antiviral therapy to control viral load would be allowed. Subjects with viral hepatitis with controlled viral load would be allowed while on suppressive antiviral therapy.)
  • Prior exposure to lurbinectedin, TMZ or stenoparib.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Clinical significant cardiovascular disease (ie active)
  • Subject with known hypersensitivity to Stenoparib components
  • Subject with known history of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are excluded.
