Could radiopharmaceuticals become another way to target #SCLC? Dr Toby Talbot explains how a radioisotope can be delivered to tumour-specific targets – a similar principle to an ADC, but with radiation replacing the drug payload. #BTOGSCLC26 #LCSM

Replying to @DrRiyazShah
@DrRiyazShah: is long-term in SCLC achievable? Answer: ✅ Have we achieved it yet? ❌ LS-SCLC: 3yr OS = ~56% ?long-term survival with longer follow up ES-SCLC: Up to 22% 4yr survival (ASTRUM) 11% 7yr survival (Imbrella-A) 🔺Can’t predict at start of treatment who will be long-term survivor ❓Will T-cell engagers give even longer survival

Tom Combellack: What is resectable in SCLC? 🔸 Uncommon, but important to remember ❌ Sub-lobar resection not recommended ✅ Adjuvant chemotherapy is recommended ✅ CRT if R1/R2 and/or N2 disease ❓PCI question very pertinent given MAVERICK data & ongoing PRIMALUNG Caveats: ⚠️ Retrospective data, with selection bias
