Summary: Every year, the American Cancer Society projects the numbers of new cancer cases and deaths in the United States, with the latest data showing a significant decline in lung cancer mortality, while prostate cancer mortality has plateaued and breast and colorectal cancer mortality have slowed. Improvements in treatment have accelerated progress against lung cancer, leading to a record drop in overall cancer mortality.

Patterns of transcription factor programs and immune pathway activation define four major subtypes of SCLC with distinct therapeutic vulnerabilities

Carl M. Gay et al.

Summary: Despite the heterogeneity of small cell lung cancer (SCLC), four subtypes have been identified based on tumor expression data, each showing different responses to treatment. SCLC-I subtype benefits the most from immunotherapy, while other subtypes have vulnerabilities to different inhibitors. Matching tumor subtype to therapy and manipulating subtype switching during treatment may enhance response depth and duration for SCLC patients.

Durvalumab, with or without tremelimumab, plus platinum-etoposide versus platinum-etoposide alone in first-line treatment of extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (CASPIAN): updated results from a randomised, controlled, open-label, phase 3 trial

Jonathan W. Goldman et al.

Summary: The study showed that first-line treatment with durvalumab plus platinum-etoposide resulted in sustained improvement in overall survival, while the addition of tremelimumab to this combination did not significantly enhance efficacy. These findings support the use of durvalumab plus platinum-etoposide as a new standard of care for extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer.

Small-cell lung cancer

Charles M. Rudin et al.

Summary: Small-cell lung cancer is a type of lung cancer characterized by high proliferative rate, early metastasis, and poor prognosis, strongly associated with tobacco carcinogens. Most patients are diagnosed with metastatic disease, with only a small fraction having potentially curative earlier-stage disease. Genomic profiling reveals extensive chromosomal rearrangements and high mutation burden in SCLC, often involving inactivation of TP53 and RB1 tumor suppressor genes.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors: a new landscape for extensive stage small cell lung cancer treatment

Andrea Bianco et al.

Summary: Chemotherapy has been the standard treatment for ES-SCLC for almost 40 years, but recently, immune check points inhibitors have emerged as a potential new mainstay of treatment. Understanding the impact of tumor microenvironment and finding reliable biomarkers will be crucial for personalized treatment approaches.

Prognostic Value of Ki-67 Expression in Advanced Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma Patients Treated with Chemotherapy

Diming Wang et al.

Summary: The study revealed a correlation between the Ki-67 expression level and tumor staging, chemotherapy response, and survival prognosis in patients with advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma. High Ki-67 expression was associated with shorter overall survival and progression-free survival, serving as an independent prognostic biomarker.
