Outcomes of Chemoimmunotherapy Among Patients With Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer According to Potential Clinical Trial Eligibility

Abstract

In this cohort study, the overall treatment outcome was comparable to that reported in pivotal clinical trials. However, treatment outcomes after chemoimmunotherapy might differ between trial-eligible and trial-ineligible patients. These findings suggest that trial-eligibility criteria may be useful in clinical practice, and further studies using data from clinical practice settings are required to inform regulatory approval and clinical decision-making.
