What this Trial Is About
Researchers are investigating whether combining surufatinib with immunotherapy and chemoradiotherapy can improve survival for patients with limited-stage small cell lung cancer LS-SCLC. This single-arm Phase II study explores the safety and effectiveness of adding surufatinib to the standard ADRIATIC regimen, which includes toripalimab and chemoradiotherapy, aiming to enhance treatment outcomes for LS-SCLC patients.
Participants will receive four cycles of chemotherapy with etoposide combined with either cisplatin or carboplatin, alongside toripalimab and oral surufatinib taken on days 1 to 14 of each cycle. Radiotherapy to the chest begins no later than the third chemotherapy cycle. After completing chemoradiotherapy, patients who show complete response, partial response, or stable disease will continue with consolidation therapy using toripalimab and surufatinib. Prophylactic cranial irradiation is recommended before starting consolidation treatment.
During the study, patients will undergo various assessments to monitor their response and safety, including tracking progression-free survival over two years as the primary outcome. Researchers will also evaluate overall survival, treatment-related side effects, and patient-reported outcomes up to one year after treatment. The total study period involves close monitoring and follow-up to assess both effectiveness and safety of the combined treatment approach.

Your Study Journey
Screening
Duration - 2 to 4 weeks
Participants are screened for eligibility to participate in the trial.
1 visit (in-person)
Treatment
Duration - Approximately 12 weeks (four 3-week cycles)
Participants receive four cycles of chemotherapy with etoposide combined with cisplatin or carboplatin, concurrent immunotherapy with toripalimab, oral surufatinib during chemotherapy cycles, and thoracic radiotherapy starting no later than the third chemotherapy cycle.
Visits every 3 weeks for chemotherapy and immunotherapy administration, with daily oral surufatinib on days 1-14 of each cycle and concurrent radiotherapy sessions during treatment
Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation
Duration - Duration as per clinical recommendation after chemoradiotherapy
Participants receive prophylactic cranial irradiation recommended after completion of chemoradiotherapy to reduce the risk of brain metastases.
Approximately 1 visit for PCI treatment
Consolidation Therapy
Duration - Repeated 3-week cycles until disease progression or discontinuation
Participants who achieve complete response, partial response, or stable disease after chemoradiotherapy receive consolidation therapy with toripalimab every 3 weeks and oral surufatinib for days 1-14 of each consolidation cycle.
Visits every 3 weeks for toripalimab infusion and oral surufatinib administration on days 1-14 of each cycle
