Özet

Small-cell lung cancer has a high chemotherapeutic sensitivity but with disappointing outcome results. Patients with "sensitive disease" are those who respond to treatment with a long relapse-free interval (RFI): in these cases rechallenge with first-line chemotherapy might represent a therapeutic opportunity. Our largest retrospective experience confirmed that rechallenge is feasible with interesting outcome results; there are no statistical differences between RFI and outcome.
