Name | Type | Description | Interventions |
---|---|---|---|
Dose Escalation (Arm A1) (Maintenance only) | Experimental | Cohort A1: Participants with ES-SCLC who have completed 4-6 cycles of carboplatin and etoposide first-line induction chemotherapy, with or without atezolizumab, will be administered continuous maintenance therapy with Venetoclax (400mg) once daily (QD) from Day 1 to 21 and Atezolizumab (1200mg) every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1. |
|
Dose Escalation (Arm A2) (Maintenance only) | Experimental | Cohort A2: Participants with ES-SCLC who have completed 4-6 cycles of carboplatin and etoposide first-line induction chemotherapy, with or without atezolizumab, will be administered continuous maintenance therapy with Venetoclax (800mg) once daily (QD) from Day 1 to 21 and Atezolizumab (1200mg) every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1. |
|
Dose Escalation (Arm A3) (Maintenance only) | Experimental | Cohort A3: Participants with ES-SCLC who have completed 4-6 cycles of carboplatin and etoposide first-line induction chemotherapy, with or without atezolizumab, will be administered continuous maintenance therapy with Venetoclax (200mg) once daily (QD) from Day 1 to 21 and Atezolizumab (1200mg) every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1. This cohort maybe explored if Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) are experienced and adverse events are thought to be potentially mitigated with a lower dose of venetoclax. |
|
Dose Escalation (Arm B1) (Induction + Maintenance) | Experimental | Cohort B1: Participants with ES-SCLC will be administered non-continuous induction therapy with Venetoclax (200mg) once daily (QD) from Day 1 to 7, Atezolizumab (1200mg) every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1, Carboplatin (5mg/mL/min) on Day 1 and Etoposide (100mg/m^2) on Days 1-3. Participants who tolerate study treatment without excessive toxicity, and have not undergone disease progression will then proceed to maintenance treatment with venetoclax plus atezolizumab. The venetoclax dose for the maintenance setting in Arm B will be the dose that has been cleared in the maintenance only arm (Arm A) of the study (maintenance RP2D, RP2D-M). |
|
Dose Escalation (Arm B2) (Induction + Maintenance) | Experimental | Cohort B2: Participants with ES-SCLC will be administered non-continuous induction therapy with Venetoclax (400mg) once daily (QD) from Day 1 to 7, Atezolizumab (1200mg) every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1, Carboplatin (5mg/mL/min) on Day 1 and Etoposide (100mg/m^2) on Days 1-3. Participants who tolerate study treatment without excessive toxicity, and have not undergone disease progression will then proceed to maintenance treatment with venetoclax plus atezolizumab. The venetoclax dose for the maintenance setting in Arm B will be the dose that has been cleared in the maintenance only arm (Arm A) of the study (maintenance RP2D, RP2D-M). |
|
Dose Escalation (Arm B3) (Induction + Maintenance) | Experimental | Cohort B3: Participants with ES-SCLC will be administered non-continuous induction therapy with Venetoclax (800mg) once daily (QD) from Day 1 to 7, Atezolizumab (1200mg) every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1, Carboplatin (5mg/mL/min) on Day 1 and Etoposide (100mg/m^2) on Days 1-3. Participants who tolerate study treatment without excessive toxicity, and have not undergone disease progression will then proceed to maintenance treatment with venetoclax plus atezolizumab. The venetoclax dose for the maintenance setting in Arm B will be the dose that has been cleared in the maintenance only arm (Arm A) of the study (maintenance RP2D, RP2D-M). |
|
Dose Escalation (Arm B4) (Induction + Maintenance) | Experimental | Cohort B4: Participants with ES-SCLC will be administered non-continuous induction therapy with Venetoclax (800mg) once daily (QD) from Day 1 to 14, Atezolizumab (1200mg) every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1, Carboplatin (5mg/mL/min) on Day 1 and Etoposide (100mg/m^2) on Days 1-3. Participants who tolerate study treatment without excessive toxicity, and have not undergone disease progression will then proceed to maintenance treatment with venetoclax plus atezolizumab. The venetoclax dose for the maintenance setting in Arm B will be the dose that has been cleared in the maintenance only arm (Arm A) of the study (maintenance RP2D, RP2D-M). |
|
Dose Expansion | Experimental | If the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) for Venetoclax during induction is established, then the dose-expansion cohort will continue to test venetoclax in both induction and maintenance. Participants will be administered non-continuous induction therapy with Venetoclax (RP2D-I/induction RP2D), Atezolizumab (1200mg) every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1, Carboplatin (5mg/mL/min) on Day 1 and Etoposide (100mg/m^2) on Days 1-3 followed by continuous maintenance therapy with Venetoclax (RP2D-M) and Atezolizumab (1200mg) every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1. If significant toxicity and DLTs in induction preclude identification of an RP2D for venetoclax in induction treatment, then the safety and efficacy of venetoclax will only be investigated in dose-expansion in the maintenance setting. Participants will be administered continuous maintenance therapy with Venetoclax (RP2D-M) and Atezolizumab (1200mg) every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1. |
