Abstract:
The results of a prospective Phase II study of a multimodal treatment regimen including surgery of operable stages of small cell lung cancer are reported. Of 45 patients 24 received all parts of the projected treatment. The 5-year survival probability is 56% and 8 patients are still living after more than 60 months. Eleven patients with N2 lymph node metastases receiving the complete therapy have a projected 5-year survival of 60%.
