While advances in the diagnosis and staging of SCLC have been made over the past decade, overall therapeutic results remain essentially unchanged. However, during this time period there have been major advances in understanding the biology of this tumor cell type. The recognition of considerable heterogeneity among SCLC cells may be of prognostic importance, while the demonstration of specific growth factors, including bombesin, for this tumor type may open up new means for endocrine therapy of lung carcinoma in vivo. Over the next 5-10 yr, studies of clinical trials using specific antibodies or analogs of bombesin-like growth factors in patients with SCLC will define more clearly the role of BLI and GRP in patients with this disease.
