Large Cell Lung Cancer

Just wondered whether apart from chemo, do any of the new targeted therapies work with Large Cell lunger cancer?

eg Nivolumab, Kertruda or anything else? Or is chemo the only option assuming that surgery is not possible?

Has anybody been treated for large cell lung cancer?

Thanks

Andrew

    If you'd like to find out about new targeted therapies in relation to large cell lung cancer then our cancer nurses would be the best people to get in touch with about this. You can call them for free on 0808 800 4040 Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    We also have a section dedicated to lung cancer - including large cell - on our website just here if you'd like to have a look as it does discuss treatment options for this type of cancer which could prove useful in finding the answers you're looking for at this time.

    I couldn't find anyone on the forum discussing this diagnosis recently so it may be worth having a look at the The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation forum or calling The British Lung Foundation's helpline to see if they can help you connect with others in your area that have this.

    Kind regards,
