Brief summary

For limited-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC), neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus PD-1 antibody is recommended. However, most patients cannot achieve a complete pathological response (CPR). A new immunotherapeutic strategy is needed to achieve a higher CPR rate. JS004 is a new antibody targeting B and T lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA), which restrains immune cells' function and leads to immune escape of tumor cells. The combination of PD-1 and BTLA antibodies has shown a good therapeutic effect in solid tumors. This trial aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of the therapeutic regimen of toripalimab and JS004 plus etoposide and platinum Chemotherapy in limited-stage SCLC.

Histological or cytological diagnosis of SCLC by needle biopsy, and limited stage confirmed by imageological examinations (CT, PET-CT or EBUS). 4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance-status score of 0 or 1. 5. Life expectancy is at least 12 weeks. 6. At least 1 measurable lesion according to RECIST 1.1. 7.

Fertile female patients must voluntarily use effective contraceptives not less than 120 days after chemotherapy or the last dose of toripalimab (whichever is later) during the study period, and urine or serum pregnancy test results within 7 days prior to enrollment are negative. 12. Unsterilized male patients must voluntarily use effective contraception during the study period not less than 120 days after chemotherapy or the last dose of toripalimab (whichever is later).

Exclusion criteria

1. Participants who have received any systemic anti-cancer treatment for thymic epithelial tumor, including surgical treatment, local radiotherapy, cytotoxic drug treatment, targeted drug treatment and experimental treatment; 2. Patients with a malignancy other than SCLC within five years prior to the start of this trial; 3. Participants with any unstable systemic disease (including active infection, uncontrolled hypertension), unstable angina pectoris, angina pectoris starting in the last three months, congestive heart failure (>= NYHA) Grade II), myocardial infarction (6 months before admission), severe arrhythmia requiring drug treatment, liver, kidney or metabolic diseases; 4. With activate or suspectable autoimmune disease, or autoimmune paracancer syndrome requiring systemic treatment; 5. Participants who are allergic to the test drug or any auxiliary materials; 6.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Pathologic complete response (PCR) rateUp to 30 monthsPCR rate is defined as the proportion of participants who have achieved pathologic complete response (on routine hematoxylin and eosin staining, no tumor cell can be found in tumor bed or lymph node) in all participants.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Major pathologic response (MPR) rateUp to 30 monthsMPR rate is defined as the proportion of participants who have achieved major pathologic response (on routine hematoxylin and eosin staining, tumors with no more than 10% viable tumor cells) in all participants.
Treatment-related adverse event (TRAE)Up to 30 monthsTRAE is defined and classified according to NCI-CTCAE v5.0 in all participants.
Objective response rate (ORR)up to 30 monthsORR is defined according to the RECIST v1.1 criteria.
Overall survival (OS)up to 60 monthsIt is defined as the time (months) from enrollment to death of participant due to any cause. In the case of a patient who still survives at the time of analysis, the date of last contact will be taken as the censoring date.
EORTC-QLQ-C30 scaleup to 5 monthsThe assessment is made according to the Quality of Life Scale for Lung Cancer Patients (EORTC-QLQ-C30, Version 3). EORTC's QLQ-C30 (V3.0) is a core scale for lung cancer patients, with a total of 30 items. Among them, Item 29 and 30 are divided into seven grades, which are assigned with 1 to 7 scores according to the answer options. The other items are divided into 4 grades: Not at All, A Little, Quite a Bit, and Very Much, assigned with 1 to 4 scores respectively. The higher score, the worse quality.
Event-free survival (EFS)up to 60 monthsEvent-free survival (EFS) is defined as the length of time (months) from randomization to any of the following events: any progression of disease precluding surgery, progression or recurrence disease based on response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) 1.1 after surgery, or death due to any cause. Participants who don't undergo surgery for reason other than progression will be considered to have an event at progression or death. Progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression).
