What to Expect as a Participant

You will actively receive the study intervention — which may be a drug, biologic, device, or procedure.

Phase 1 is the earliest stage of human testing — safety and dosage are the primary focus. Visits are frequent and medical supervision is intensive. You will be among the first people to receive this treatment.

This trial targets 27 participants in total. It began in 2019-08-02 with a primary completion date of 2026-10-27.

Brief Summary

The investigators propose to study the carbonic anhydrase inhibition (acetazolamide) associated with concomitant radiochemotherapy or radioimmunotherapy in small cell lung cancer due to: 1. The over-expression of carbonic anhydrases in this type of cancer, 2. The Anti-tumor effect in preclinical acetazolamide in various tumor lines including neuroendocrine tumor lines, 3. The observed synergy between irradiation and inhibition of carbonic anhydrases, 4. Potential anti-tumor immune effect caused by decreased extracellular acidity.
