Trial summary

This phase II trial studies how effective talazoparib and temozolomide are for treating participants with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has come back after an initial chemotherapy treatment. Talazoparib, a PARP inhibitor, may stop the growth of tumor cells by preventing them from repairing their DNA. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Study of Continuous Talazoparib Plus Intermittent Low-Dose Temozolomide in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (TRIO-US L-07)

This phase II trial studies how effective talazoparib and temozolomide are for treating participants with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has come back after an initial chemotherapy treatment. Talazoparib, a PARP inhibitor, may stop the growth of tumor cells by preventing them from repairing their DNA. Chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving talazoparib and temozolomide may work better in treating participants with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer than either one alone.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Evaluate the efficacy of talazoparib in combination with temozolomide as measured by objective response rate (ORR).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate the efficacy of talazoparib plus temozolomide as measured by progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival, duration of response, and time to response.

II. To evaluate the safety, tolerability of talazoparib plus temozolomide. III. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of talazoparib when given in combination with temozolomide.

IV. To evaluate patient reported outcomes per the Patient Reported Outcomes version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE).

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To identify potential biomarkers associated with response to study drug treatment.

OUTLINE:

Participants receive temozolomide orally (PO) on days 1-5 and talazoparib PO once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, participants are followed up at 30 days and then up to 1 year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Talazoparib and Temozolomide in people with Recurrent Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Carcinoma and Refractory Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Carcinoma, run by Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center at 6 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 19 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective response rate defined as the proportion of participants with a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIS)T 1.1 (time frame: Up to 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Oct 2026.
