Abstract
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive form of neuroendocrine neoplasm known for its striking initial response to treatment, followed by fast relapse and refractoriness in response to additional lines of therapy. New advances in immunotherapy are paving the way for more effective treatment strategies and have promising results with early clinical trial data. While SCLC rarely harbors actionable mutations, the receptor DLL3 is extensively present in SCLC, making it a potential target for immunotherapy. Three emerging therapeutic options include bispecific T cell engagers targeting DLL3, chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T cells), and antibody-drug conjugates. Several phase II and phase III clinical trials for bispecific T cell engagers show promise. Additionally, the first CAR-T cell trials in humans for SCLC are currently underway.
期刊介绍：
The Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer (JITC) is a peer-reviewed publication that promotes scientific exchange and deepens knowledge in the constantly evolving fields of tumor immunology and cancer immunotherapy. With an open access format, JITC encourages widespread access to its findings. The journal covers a wide range of topics, spanning from basic science to translational and clinical research. Key areas of interest include tumor-host interactions, the intricate tumor microenvironment, animal models, the identification of predictive and prognostic immune biomarkers, groundbreaking pharmaceutical and cellular therapies, innovative vaccines, combination immune-based treatments, and the study of immune-related toxicity.
