Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC)

Select adverse effects examined during the initial 24 weeks of treatment occurred at a rare or occasional frequency and mild to moderate severity.

The safety profile of camrelizumab plus apatinib and chemotherapy in a phase 1 study aligns with prior reports of each agent.

The phase 3 IMforte trial evaluating lurbinectedin plus atezolizumab is the first to show PFS and OS improvement with first-line maintenance for ES-SCLC.

Here are 3 things you should know about the multimodal treatment of patients with SCLC.

No new safety signals were observed with bevacizumab, atezolizumab, carboplatin, and etoposide in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer.

Whole-brain prophylactic cranial irradiation appears to confer minimal overall survival benefits in those with limited-stage small cell lung cancer.

Data may support anlotinib/benmelstobart plus chemotherapy as a preferable frontline treatment option in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer.

Patients with ES-SCLC who received immunotherapy plus chemotherapy experienced a median OS of 14.9 months vs 11.9 months with chemotherapy alone.

Findings from the phase 1/2 LUPER trial support further assessment of lurbinectedin plus pembrolizumab in relapsed small cell lung cancer.

Phase 3 data support using twice-daily high-dose thoracic radiotherapy plus concurrent chemotherapy as an alternative therapy for patients with LS-SCLC.

Multivariate analysis showed consolidative thoracic radiotherapy improved OS/PFS vs control patients with ES-SCLC, with respective HRs of 0.53 and 0.90.

Patient-reported adverse effects associated with tarlatamab appeared to be generally mild in the phase 2 DeLLphi-301 trial.

The safety profile for tarlatamab was consistent with its known profile in patients with relapsed small cell lung cancer.

Real-world data may support a new way to consider follow-up treatment for patients who are older with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer.

Investigators will assess the safety, pharmacology, and maximum tolerated dose of ST-001 in relapsed/refractory SCLC as part of a phase 1a/1b trial.

Tislelizumab plus chemotherapy demonstrated superior OS, PFS, ORR, and DOR results compared with placebo plus chemotherapy in first-line ES-SCLC.

Intravenous olvi-vec demonstrated a manageable safety and tolerability profile consistent with previous trials evaluating the investigational agent.

Experts from Washington University in St. Louis discuss prior data and strategies for mitigating toxicities like CRS associated with tarlatamab in SCLC.

Real-world atezolizumab plus chemotherapy data demonstrated similar efficacy compared with what the phase 3 IMpower133 trial showed.

In patients with small cell lung cancer, Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome leads to muscle weakness and can be discovered with no-cost testing such as anti-VGCC antibody testing.

Pooled analysis data support atezolizumab continuation as a viable second-line therapy option in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer.

Following promising results from a trial investigating the effects of 225Ac-SSO110 on Balb/c nude mice injected with the xenograft model of SCLC, IND clearance was granted by the FDA.

Support for the recommendation is based on phase 3 ADRIATIC trial results showing a 27% reduction in the risk of death with durvalumab vs placebo.

A phase 1a/1b trial showed that ZL-1310 elicited an ORR of 74%, all of which were PRs, in patients with SCLC who received prior chemotherapy.
