A Study of Alisertib and Paclitaxel in Patients With Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC)

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine how well people tolerate treatment with alisertib at different doses when it is used together with paclitaxel to treat people with SCLC. The main question it aims to answer is: * What percentage of side effects, both mild and serious, do participants experience when being treated with alisertib and paclitaxel based on the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 (NCI CTCAE v.5.0)? The study will consist of different groups, called cohorts, in which alisertib will be studied at increasing doses. Participants in the first group, Cohort 1, will take 30 mg of alisertib by mouth 2 times a day. The dose will increase by 10 mg 2 times a day for each new cohort of participants joining the study. Side effects will be checked during the study, and the decision to increase the dose of alisertib will be based on the specific side effects experienced during the first 21 days of treatment for each cohort. Participants will: * take alisertib by mouth on their own 2 times a day from Day 1 through Day 7 of each 21-day cycle and will be given paclitaxel intravenously at a dose of 60 mg/m2 on Day 1 and Day 8 of each 21-day cycle. * be given a preventive treatment to increase their body defenses, called granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). Study staff will give G-CSF after the last dose of alisertib or paclitaxel of each 21-day cycle in which alisertib was given. * provide blood samples to evaluate the different levels of alisertib in the blood at different times. Blood samples will be collected on Days 1 and 7 of the first and second 21-day cycles of treatment. * be treated with alisertib and paclitaxel until death, worsening of the disease, unacceptable toxicity, unwillingness to continue participating in the trial, or other criteria that requires participants to stop treatment and participation in the study. * be contacted every 8 weeks after stopping alisertib and paclitaxel treatment as part of a specific study phase called the long-term follow-up period. This will last until death, unwillingness to continue participating in the trial, or until the end of the study.

Organoid-guided vs Topotecan Therapy in Relapsed Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer

This study aims to provide personalized treatment options for patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) whose disease has worsened after initial chemotherapy. Researchers will use a novel approach called "tumor organoid drug sensitivity testing": A small sample of the patient's tumor (from biopsy or fluid) is grown into miniature 3D tumor models ("organoids") in the lab. These organoids are exposed to various FDA-approved second-line drugs (including chemotherapy and newer targeted/immunotherapy drugs if available). The most effective drug for each patient's organoids will be recommended for their treatment. 128 participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups:Experimental Group: Receive organoid-guided personalized therapy; Control Group: Receive standard second-line chemotherapy (Topotecan). The study will compare: How long the cancer remains controlled (Progression-Free Survival); Overall survival time; Treatment response rates and side effects. Potential benefits: May identify more effective treatments for individual patients; Could extend time without cancer progression. Risks: Organoid testing requires an additional tumor biopsy/fluid collection; Possible side effects from second-line drugs.

Zusanli (ST36) Electroacupuncture Treatment for Neoadjuvant Immunotherapy in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This study aims to investigate the potential synergistic effects of acupuncture combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors in cancer therapy. Over the past decade, significant progress in cancer immunotherapy has been driven by breakthroughs in understanding immune checkpoint molecules; however, monotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors still faces challenges due to low response rates. As a traditional Chinese medical intervention, acupuncture modulates neuro-immune pathways to achieve remote regulation of organ functions, with particular anti-tumor potential observed at the Zusanli (ST36) acupoint-a site located 2 cm below the knee that can be stimulated via electroacupuncture (EA) to improve gastrointestinal function and alleviate inflammation. Preclinical evidence demonstrates that EA suppresses tumor growth in breast cancer models, reduces levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β and TNF-α, enhances anti-tumor activity of CD8+ T cells and NK cells, and decreases accumulation of immunosuppressive myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). Animal studies show that ST36 EA increases key immunomodulatory factors like serum IFN-γ, IL-2, and IL-17, thereby potentiating the efficacy of anti-tumor drugs. Guided by the traditional TCM principle of "reinforcing healthy qi to consolidate the body's resistance," modern clinical applications of EA combined with specific acupoint regimens (e.g., ST36, Sanyinjiao) have effectively alleviated cancer-related pain, chemotherapy-induced side effects, and fatigue. This study will evaluate the safety and immunosensitization effects of ST36 EA combined with PD-1 inhibitors in non-small cell lung cancer patients, employing 1 mA electroacupuncture for 3 consecutive days to activate immune responses. By leveraging acupuncture-induced immune remodeling, this approach aims to provide a novel integrative medicine strategy to overcome resistance to immunotherapy.
