- How redefining SCLC as a molecularly heterogeneous malignancy might better inform personalized treatment of its subtypes with unique therapeutic vulnerabilities.
- How the mechanism of promoter methylation levels in ctDNA subtypes contribute to “subtype switching” in relapsed SCLC.
- Potential contribution of subtype switching to treatment resistance (platinum-based chemotherapy)
- How ‘switching’ to an inflammatory phenotype might improve therapeutic response to immune checkpoint inhibitors vs other SCLC subtypes
- The variable response of SCLC subtypes to currently available therapies
