ABSTRACT
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a highly malignant tumor, which is very sensitive to first-line chemotherapy, but easy to recurrence and metastasis early.So it always has poor prognosis.Second-line therapy for SCLC develops slowly.Topotecan is the only drug approved by US Food and Drug Administration as a second-line chemoradiotherapy.Numerous studies on molecular targeted therapy and immunotherapy are being carried out, but most of them have no or little benefit.Rovalpituzumab tesirine (Rova-T) targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) which is published at the 2016 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting shows a good anti-tumor activity, which seems to bring a new dawn of molecular targeted therapy.
