About

The purpose of this study is to explore the myeloprotective effects of trilaciclib in advanced squamous non-small cell lung cancer patients receiving a combination therapy of chemotherapy(carboplatin+paclitaxel) and immune checkpoint inhibitor (tislelizumab), as well as enhancing antitumor efficacy and possible immunological synergies.

Full description

This is a phase 2 clinical trial that is randomized, controlled, multicenter, and prospective in design. A total of 132 patients with advanced, untreated squamous non-small cell lung cancer will be randomly assigned 1:1 to receive or not receive Trilaciclib (240mg/m2) in combination with Paclitaxel (175mg/m2), Cisplatin (AUC=5), and Tislelizumab (200mg) treatment, every 3 weeks for up to 4-6 cycles (Induction). Following induction, patients will receive or not receive trilaciclib with tislelizumab for every 3 weeks until PD, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal, or death. If subsequent chemotherapy is indicated for patients after first-line progression, trilaciclib will be provided to observe the myeloprotective effect in second-line treatment. The study is expected to commence recruitment in mainland China in about May 2023. It is expected that the trial will end in December 2025.
