Abstract:Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a neuroendocrine tumor type with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. SCLC comprises multiple molecular subtypes that are defined by the expression of the lineage-related transcription factors ASCL1, NEUROD1, POU2F3, and more controversially, YAP1. SCLC exhibits remarkable plasticity with the capacity to transition between molecular states; because these states are associated with unique therapeutic susceptibilities, SCLC has been likened to a moving therapeutic target… Show more
