Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
A standard (usual) treatment for ES-SCLC uses both chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
* Chemotherapy is a treatment that works to destroy cancer cells or stop them from growing.
* Immunotherapy is a treatment that helps the immune system fight cancer.
Gocatamig and I-DXd (short for ifinatamab deruxtecan) are study medicines. Researchers want to know if giving gocatamig and I-DXd together can treat ES-SCLC. Researchers will also look at giving the study medicines with standard treatment. Gocatamig is a T-cell engager therapy. I-DXd is an antibody drug conjugate.
* T-cell engager therapy is a certain type of immunotherapy that uses T-cells to find and destroy cancer cells.
* A T-cell is a type of white blood cell, which are cells that help the body fight infection.
* An antibody drug conjugate (ADC) is a treatment that attaches to a protein on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells.
The goals of this study are to learn:
* About the safety of combining gocatamig and I-DXd and if people tolerate them together
* If people who receive gocatamig and I-DXd have ES-SCLC respond, which means the cancer gets smaller or goes away

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Arm 1, Parts A and B: Gocataming + I-DXd
Participants who completed standard of care (SOC) induction chemotherapy with concurrent approved anti-programmed cell death 1/ligand 1 protein (anti-PD-1/L1) treatment for ES-SCLC and did not have disease progression per investigator discretion, will receive gocatamig and I-DxD in the maintenance phase, until documented disease progression or meeting other study discontinuation criteria.
Gocatamig
Intravenous (IV) administration
I-DXd
IV administration
Rescue Medications
Participants will receive rescue medications at the investigator's discretion. Recommended rescue medications include tocilizumab for treatment of cytokine release syndrome (CRS); dexamethasone, acetaminophen, and diphenhydramine for CRS/infusion-related reaction (IRR) prophylaxis; and 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 (5-HT3) receptor antagonist, neurokinin 1 (NK-1) receptor antagonist, and corticosteroid for prevention of nausea and vomiting.
Arm 2, Parts A and B: Gocataming + I-DXd
Participants who did not receive prior systemic treatment for ES-SCLC will receive gocatamig and I-DxD during induction and maintenance phases, until documented disease progression or meeting other study discontinuation criteria.

Arm 3, Part B: Gocataming + I-DXd → gocatamig + atezolizumab
Participants who did not receive prior systemic treatment for ES-SCLC will receive gocatamig and I-DxD in the induction phase, followed by gocatamig and atezolizumab in the maintenance phase, until documented disease progression or meeting other study discontinuation criteria.

Arm 4, Part B: Carboplatin + etoposide + atezolizumab → atezolizumab
Participants who did not receive prior systemic treatment for ES-SCLC will receive SOC (carboplatin + etoposide + atezolizumab) in the induction phase, followed by atezolizumab in the maintenance phase, until documented disease progression or meeting other study discontinuation criteria.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* For participants receiving gocatamig + ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd) in maintenance only:
* Completed 3 to 4 cycles of platinum + etoposide chemotherapy with concurrent approved anti-programmed cell death 1/Ligand 1 (anti PD-1/L1) as first line (1L) treatment of ES-SCLC within 6 weeks prior to enrollment
* No radiological disease progression per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1)
* No other prior systemic ES-SCLC therapy allowed
* Rechallenge therapy counts as an additional line and leads to exclusion
* For participants receiving gocatamig + I-DXd in induction and maintenance, or gocatamig + I-DXd in induction followed by gocatamig + atezolizumab in maintenance, or carboplatin + etoposide + atezolizumab in induction followed by atezolizumab in maintenance: No prior systemic ES-SCLC treatment allowed
* Applicable to all participants: prior limited-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is allowed if \> 6 months have passed since the end of previous therapy and progression
* Must be able to provide a pretreatment archival tumor tissue sample or newly obtained core, incisional, or excisional biopsy of a tumor lesion not previously irradiated
* Measurable disease by RECIST 1.1 as assessed by the local site investigator/radiology. Lesions situated in a previously irradiated area are considered measurable if growth has been shown in such lesions since the completion of radiation
Exclusion Criteria
