Tarita O. Thomas, MD, PhD discusses patients with LS-SCLC, and what she would consider to be a reasonable time interval between completion of cCRT to initiation of consolidation therapy with a PD-L1 inhibitor. The panel also discusses the potential for curative-intent immunotherapy with durvalumab for earlier stages of SCLC.
In patients with LS-SCLC, what would you consider to be a reasonable time interval between completion of cCRT to initiation of consolidation therapy with a PD-L1 inhibitor?
Please discuss your thoughts on the range of time prior to initiating therapy - from immediately to 6 weeks post-cCRT.
What is the potential for curative-intent immunotherapy with durvalumab for earlier stages of SCLC?
What is the role of SBRT in earlier stages of disease vs cCRT followed by durvalumab?
