Thoracic Radiotherapy Plus Maintenance Durvalumab After First Line Carboplatin and Etoposide Plus Durvalumab in Extensive-stage Disease Small Cell Lung Cancer (ED-SCLC).

Standard of care for Extensive-Stage Disease (ED) Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) as first-line treatment is 4 to 6 cycles of platinum based chemotherapy (carboplatin or cisplatin) in combination with etoposide. However, the outcome of the disease remains poor with a median overall survival of approximately 10 months, mainly caused by rapid development of drug resistance. The risk of intrathoracic recurrences can be reduced and an improved 2-year survival can be achieved with the addition of thoracic radiotherapy (tRT). The main objective of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy of tRT combined with maintenance durvalumab in SCLC after chemoimmunotherapy. Secondary objective is to evaluate the safety of tRT combined with maintenance durvalumab in SCLC after chemo-immunotherapy. For this trial durvalumab is the IMP. Patients will start with an induction phase (part 1): Patients will receive durvalumab in combination with carboplatin and etoposide for 4 cycles of 21 days. Patients with CR; PR or SD after the induction phase, will transfer to the maintenance phase (part 2): Patients will receive durvalumab treatment up to PD or max. 2 years, i.e. 26 maintenance cycles, in combination with tRT. Patients with PD after the induction phase will transfer to the follow-up phase: Patients will be followed up for 24 months, every 8 weeks.
