Study Summary

This is a open lable, single-center phase Ib/IIa study for patients with local advanced or metastastic NSCLC or ES-SCLC, who failed with previous anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy. The aim is to observe and evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of LK101 injection combined with pembrolizumab or durvalumab respectively in the incurable NSCLC and SCLC.

Study Design

Total Participants: 40
Treatment Group(s): 3
Primary Treatment: Pembrolizumab
Phase: 1
Study Start date:
May 11, 2023
Estimated Completion Date:
December 30, 2026

Study Description

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LK101 injection combined with pembrolizumab or durvalumab, which devided into 2 cohorts:

cohort 1: patients with locally advanced or metastastic (stage IIIB-IV) NSCLC who has progressed/relapsed after anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy. eligible subjects will receive LK101 injection and pembrolizumab treatment.

cohort 2: patients with extensive SCLC who failed with at least first-line standard therapy with PD-L1. eligible subjects will receive LK101 injection and durvalumab treatment.

LK101 will be administered in a prime-boost schedule of 4 priming vaccination followed by 3 booster vaccinations. For the priming phase: LK101 administered once a week at Days 1, 8, 15, 22. For the booster phase: total of 3 vaccinations will be given, Q3W from the end of priming dose. Treatment can be continued according to the investigator's evaluation, subsequent treatment is administered Q6W.

Patients will receive a combination of pembrolizumab(200mg IV) Q3W and durvalumab (1500mg IV) Q3W in NSCLC and SCLC,respectively, until disease progression (PD), intolerable toxicity.
