Eligibility Criteria

Age 22 - 75 · All Participants · 10 Total Inclusion Criteria

Mark “Yes” if the following statements are true for you:
We are looking for 600 patients with small cell lung cancer who can have a biopsy of their lung tissue.
The study requires you to participate for a minimum of 180 days (about 6 months).
The study aims to recruit 300 patients with small cell lung cancer who are currently receiving a standard treatment of combined chemotherapy with certain drugs. These patients will also undergo a lung tissue biopsy, which is a common procedure.
The study is looking for 300 patients with small cell lung cancer who are currently being treated with a combination of chemotherapy drugs. These patients will be randomly assigned to two groups and will undergo a lung tissue biopsy.
You have been diagnosed with small cell lung cancer.
You have been diagnosed with small cell lung cancer through a biopsy of lung tissue.
You can undergo a lung tissue biopsy for small cell lung cancer testing.
The selection process for participants will be random, and the study is designed so that neither the participant nor the researcher knows who is receiving the treatment and who is receiving a placebo.
You have a medical condition that can be measured during the study.
Your organs are working properly.
