Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) • Reduced incidence (from 25-30 to 13-15%) • Still accounts for ~ 20-25,000 deaths yearly • Strongly associated with cigarette smoking • Neuroendocrine features • High frequency of TP53 and RB gene mutations • Highly aggressive • Often metastasized at the time of diagnosis • Highly responsive to CT and RT • High rate of early relapse/PD • Poor cure-rate (10-20%) and overall prognosis (MS 9-12 months)

SCLC/LCNEC: State of the art treatment • Platinum (either cis or carbo) combination chemotherapy (i.e cis/carbo-etoposide) x 4-6 courses q 3 weeks “standard of care” 1st line therapy for both LD and ED • Combined chemotherapy and thoracic radiotherapy (preferably early concurrent) standard of care for LD • Possible role of upfront surgery in very limited disease • Frail pts should receive profilactic G-CSF +/- antibiotics • 2a line therapy: Topotecan o CAV or PE-rechallenge based on treatment-free interval (refractory vs sensitive disease) • PCI for pts with both LD or ED with good response to 1st line therapy
Standard treatment of Relapsed SCLC Relapsed SCLC • TFI < 60 days • 60 < TFI < 180 days • TFI > 180 days • BSC • Clinical trials • Taxanes • Topotecan • CAV • Topotecan • PE/CE re-induction
SCLC/LCNEC: What’s new in 2015 • Molecular profiling • Novel agents for relapsed disease • Role of TRT in ED • Role of surgery

DLL3 is a dominant inhibitor of Notch signaling • Normally expressed during development in the Golgi • Aberrantly expressed in SCLC tumor-initiating cells • Interacts with and inhibits Notch1 in cis • May mediate Notch inhibition downstream of ASCL1 Kume et al., J Angiogen Res 2009
DLL3 Expression is highly expressed in SCLC Note: DLL3 appears to modulate NOTCH signaling Rovalpituzumab is a novel ADC directed against DLL3
