The landscape of small cell lung cancer metastases: Organ specificity and timing
Background Early metastasis is a hallmark of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). However, the mechanisms and resulting patterns of SCLC dissemination are unclear. Our aim was thus to investigate the organ specificity and timing of blood‐borne metastases in a comprehensive large cohort of SCLC patients. M...

Zusammenfassung: | Background
Early metastasis is a hallmark of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). However, the mechanisms and resulting patterns of SCLC dissemination are unclear. Our aim was thus to investigate the organ specificity and timing of blood‐borne metastases in a comprehensive large cohort of SCLC patients.
Methods
In this retrospective non‐interventional cross‐sectional study of 1009 Caucasian SCLC patients, we investigated the correlation between the distinct locations of the primary tumor and metastatic sites.
