Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Signed and dated informed consent of the subject must be available before start of any specific trial procedures
  • Ability of subject to understand nature, importance and individual consequences of clinical trial
  • Male or female ≥ 18 years
  • Histological confirmed limited disease small cell lung cancer (stage 2 and 3; T2-4, N1-3, M0 according UICC8 criteria), if primarius is not eligible as RECIST1.1 target lesion (in cases with T1a and T1b) at least one lymph node must meet RECIST1.1 criteria for target lesion (≥15 mm short axis)
  • Availability of tumor tissue or fresh tumor material for translational research by central lab testing
  • ECOG PS 0-1

You likely can't join if

  • Extensive disease small cell lung cancer (Tx, Nx, M1; stage IV)
  • Receipt of live attenuated vaccine within 30 days prior to the first dose of IMP
  • Participation in another clinical trial with an investigational product within the last 30 days (unless during follow-up period of an interventional study)
  • Known hypersensitivity to one of the ingredients
  • Medical or psychological conditions that would jeopardize an adequate and orderly completion of the trial
  • Pregnancy, lactation and contraception: a. Women who are pregnant, nursing or who plan to become pregnant while in the trial; b. Women of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) and men who are able to father a child, unwilling to be abstinent or use highly effective methods of birth control that result in a low failure rate of less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly beginning at informed consent, for the duration of drug treatment and for the drug out washout period (90 days after last dose of Durvalumab and/or 6 months after last dose of cisplatin and etoposide))
