ASCO 2023 | Addressing treatment strategies for limited stage small cell lung cancer

Bjorn Henning Gronberg, MD, PhD, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway, discusses treatment strategies for limited stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The THORA trial (NCT02041845) aimed to compare high dose with standard dose thoracic radiotherapy in limited stage SCLC. Even though many patients respond to the standard line of therapy of chemoradiotherapy, many also relapse. Hypothetically speaking, increasing radiotherapy doses may improve survival, but randomized trials have failed to show this. This interview took place at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2023 Annual Congress in Chicago, IL.
