About this study
In plain language
This study tests peluntamig (PT217) alone and with chemotherapy in adults with certain neuroendocrine cancers, including small cell lung cancer. These cancers start in cells with nerve-like and hormone-making features. Researchers will check safety, how the drug acts in the body, and how well it may treat cancer.
This is a first-in-human, Phase 1/2, open-label, dose escalation, dose expansion and combination study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy of Peluntamig (PT217) as a monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join
- Be age 18 or older, agree to join, and be able to follow study rules.
- Have cancer that can be measured on scans.
- Have an eligible neuroendocrine cancer. Part A includes advanced cancers that cannot be removed by surgery or have spread, in the lungs or elsewhere.
- For mixed tumors, at least half must be neuroendocrine or small cell cancer. Some grade 3 neuroendocrine tumors may qualify if they meet growth-rate rules and test positive for DLL3, a protein.
- Meet the treatment rules for your study group. Some groups allow first treatment; others require cancer that grew or came back after treatment, or treatment that was not available or could not be tolerated.
- Provide a tumor tissue sample, preferably from a new biopsy, to test for DLL3 and other cancer markers.
- Be fully active or able to do light work, even if hard physical activity is limited.
- Have organs working well enough on tests before treatment.
Who can't join
- Neuroendocrine cancer that changed from non-small cell lung cancer.
- Pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Able to become pregnant but not using adequate birth control.
- An autoimmune disease, where the immune system attacks the body, that needed treatment affecting the whole body in the past 12 months.
Simplified for readability. The official criteria below are what the study team uses.
Official eligibility criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria 1. 18 years or older and able to sign informed consent and comply with the protocol. 2. Measurable disease as defined by RECIST v1.1 criteria for solid tumors. 3. NECs that have transformed from NSCLC are not eligible. Part A: Patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed unresectable advanced or metastatic small cell lung cancer (SCLC), large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the lung (LCNEC), or extrapulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma (EP-NEC). Patients with tumors that are of mixed histology are eligible only if neuroendocrine carcinoma/small cell cancer component is predominant and represents at least 50% of the overall tumor tissue. Patients with well differentiated grade 3 neuroendocrine tumors (Ki-67 ≥ 55%) may be considered if their tumors are DLL3 positive. Patients may have progressed after standard of care treatments (at least one line of platinum-based chemotherapy with or without immune checkpoint inhibitor for SCLC patients) or other treatment options, or for whom treatment is not available or not tolerated. Part B: Patients must meet the same eligibility criteria as patients in Part A, C or D. Part C: * Substudy C1: patients with LCNEC or EP-NEC eligible for first-line (1L) CE treatment. SCLC patients who have relapsed on a 1L treatment (including platinum-based therapy with or without ICI) but remain platinum sensitive (defined as patients who experienced disease progression at least 90 days after their last platinum based chemotherapy) and are eligible for CE treatment rechallenge. * Substudy C2: patients with SCLC, LCNEC and EP-NEC eligible for second line (2L) paclitaxel treatment. * Substudies C3 and C5: patients with SCLC eligible for 2L or 3L treatment with lurbinectedin (C3) or topotecan (C5) are eligible. Patients with SCLC who progressed on or were intolerant of DLL3-targeting therapies (including but not limited to tarlatamab) can be enrolled into substudies C3 or C5 for 3L treatment. * Substudy C4: patients with SCLC, LCNEC or EP-NEC eligible for 2L irinotecan, or patients with SCLC eligible for 3L irinotecan. Patients with SCLC who progressed on or were intolerant of DLL3-targeting therapies (including but not limited to tarlatamab) can be enrolled into substudy C4 for 3L treatment. Part D: * Substudy D1: will include 2L patients with SCLC, LCNEC, pr EP-NEC (excluding GEP-NEC) that have progressed/relapsed from their first-line treatment that may have included an ICI. * Substudy D2: will include 1L ES-SCLC patients that have completed their induction therapy with carboplatin and etoposide plus atezolizumab and are eligible to continue with atezolizumab. These patients must have either stable disease or partial response prior to enrollment. * Substudy D3: will include 1L ES-SCLC patients that are treatment naïve or have received C1D1/2/3 and are eligible for treatment with CE plus atezolizumab. 4. Able to provide a formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue sample (preferably a newly acquired biopsy, or if not possible, archival tissue) to be assessed for DLL3 expression and other biomarkers. 5. ECOG performance status of 0 or 1. 6. Adequate organ function confirmed at screening and within 72 hours of initiating C1D1 of Peluntamig (PT217) treatment. Key Exclusion Criteria 1. Women who are pregnant or lactating. 2. Women of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) who do not use adequate birth control. 3. Autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment within the past twelve months. Additional inclusion and exclusions criteria will apply.
