History of radiation pneumonitis in radiation field (fibrosis) is permitted, as long as it is asymptomatic and no steroids are needed. d)Known history of active neurologic paraneoplastic syndrome. e)Myopathy or any clinical situation that causes significant and persistent elevation of CPK (>2.5 x ULN in two different determinations performed one week apart). f)Limitation of the patient’s ability to comply with the treatment or follow-up protocol. g)Any other major illness that, in the Investigator’s judgment, will substantially increase the risk associated with the patient’s participation in this study. 9. Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy (in dosing exceeding 10 mg daily of prednisone equivalent) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of study drug. 10. Has active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years 11. Has a history of (non-infectious) pneumonitis that required steroids or has current pneumonitis 12. Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy. 13. Has a known history of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). 14. Has a known history of Hepatitis B (defined as Hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg] reactive) or known active Hepatitis C virus (defined as HCV RNA is detected) infection. 15. Has a known history of active tuberculosis (Mycobacterium tuberculosis). 16. Has a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratory abnormality that might confound the results of the study, interfere with the subject’s participation for the full duration of the study, or is not in the best interest of the subject to participate, in the opinion of the treating Investigator. 17. Has known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the trial. 18. Is pregnant or breastfeeding, or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the study, starting with the screening visit through 120 days after the last dose of trial treatment.

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Phase 1 stage: Until MTD and RD have been defined Phase 2 stage:Time from randomization to disease progression;Main Objective: Phase I stage: (1) Objective: To determine the MTD and the recommended phase II dose (RD) of PM01183 in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with relapsed SCLC. Phase II stage: (1) Objective: To assess the efficacy of PM01183 in combination with pembrolizumab in terms of ORR, according to RECIST 1.1, in patients with relapsed SCLC.;Secondary Objective: Phase I stage (1)to obtain preliminary information on the clinical antitumor activity of this combination in patients with relapsed SCLC (2)to determine the MTD and the RD of PM01183 in combination with pembrolizumab with mandatory primary prophylaxis with G-CSF in patients with relapsed SCLC (if DLTs of this combination are exclusively related to neutropenia) Phase II stage (1)to further characterize the antitumor activity of this combination as per RECIST 1.1 in terms of: ORR or stable disease (SD) =3 months);DOR;PFS;OS Both stages (1)To characterize the safety profile and feasibility of PM01183 in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with relapsed SCLC (2)To characterize the plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) of PM01183 in this combination and to detect major drug-drug PK interactions (3)to perform a PGt analysis (4)to perform a PGx analysis in tumor samples of patients exposed to PM01183 and pembrolizumab in order to assess potential markers of response and/or resistance;Primary end point(s): Phase I Stage Determination of MTD and RD: •The MTD will be the lowest dose level explored during dose escalation at which more than one third of evaluable patients develop a DLT in Cycle 1. •The RD will be the highest dose level explored at which less than one third of evaluable patients develop a DLT during Cycle 1. If the DLTs of the PM01183 and pembrolizumab combination without G-CSF prophylaxis are exclusively related to neutropenia, the MT

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Both Stages:Safety: patients will be evaluable for safety if they have received at least one partial infusion of PM01183. AEs will be graded according to the NCI-CTCAE v.5. Additionally, treatment compliance, in particular dose reduction requirements, skipped doses and/or cycle delays due to AEs, will be described. • Efficacy: preliminary antitumor activity in the phase I stage, will be evaluated according to the RECIST 1.1 (and the iRECIST 1.1, whenever applicable) at least 6 weeks after treatment initiation in all patients with measurable disease. During expansion at the RD in the phase II stage, antitumor activity will also be evaluated according to the RECIST 1.1 (and the iRECIST 1.1, whenever applicable) as described above. In both stages, a patient evaluable for efficacy should have received at least one complete cycle (including observation period) and must have had at least one tumor assessment as per RECIST 1.1, except if non-evaluability is due to treatment failure such as treatment-related AEs, death or early unequivocal PD outside the central nervous system (CNS). • Pharmacokinetics: PK parameters will be evaluated in plasma by standard noncompartmental methods (compartmental modeling may be performed if appropriate). • Pharmacogenetics: a blood sample will be collected at any time during the trial (but preferably just before treatment start in Cycle 1 along with the first PK sample) to analyze germline DNA for the presence or absence of mutations or polymorphisms in genes relevant for the metabolism and/or transport of PM01183 that may help explain individual variability in main PK parameters. • Pharmacogenomics: this exploratory analysis will be performed if there is evidence of clinical benefit in the cohort of patients with available samples for PGx analysis. The mutational status of factors involved in DNA repair mechanisms, or related to the mechanism of action of PM01183 or pembrolizumab, will be evaluated from available pr
