Overview

This phase II trial compares the effect of adding radiation therapy to the usual maintenance therapy with Serplulimab versus Serplulimab alone in patients who have already received Serplulimab plus chemotherapy for the treatment of extensive stage small cell lung cancer .

9. Have a history of Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, organized pneumonia (such as Bronchiolitis obliterans), drug-induced pneumonia or idiopathic pneumonia, or chest computed tomography (CT) at screening shows evidence of active pneumonia.
10. Active or latent pulmonary tuberculosis.
11. Serious cardiovascular disease (such as heart disease, myocardial infarction or cerebrovascular accident of New York Heart Association Grade II or above), unstable arrhythmia or unstable angina pectoris occurred within 3 months before the start of the study treatment.
12. Major surgical procedures other than diagnosis have been performed within 4 weeks prior to the start of the study treatment, or significant surgical procedures are expected to be required during the study period.
13. Malignant tumors other than small cell lung cancer (SCLC) occurred within 5 years before the start of the study treatment, but the cancer under study and malignant tumors with negligible risk of metastasis or death (such as the 5-year overall survival rate>90%) were excluded, such as fully treated cervical Carcinoma in situ, non Melanoma skin cancer, localized prostate cancer, ductal carcinoma in situ or stage I Uterine cancer.
14. Severe infection occurred within 4 weeks before the start of study treatment, including but not limited to hospitalization due to infection, Bloodstream infections, severe pneumonia or any active infection that may affect the safety of patients.
15. Previously received allogeneic stem cell or solid organ transplantation.
16. Any other diseases, metabolic disorders, physical examination abnormalities, or clinical laboratory abnormalities that may affect the interpretation of results or treatment complications that may pose a high risk to patients, may result in contraindications to the use of research drugs.
17. Received attenuated live vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the start of research treatment, or expected to receive such vaccines during the treatment period of sulumab or within 5 months after the last administration of serplulimab.
18. Currently undergoing anti HBV treatment.
