Cisplietin and etoponcle d1 and d2, 3 for sclc on left side of lung
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Sclc: Combination of Cisplatin and Etoposide is the first line therapy for small cell lung cancer. It is also one of regimens we use for non small cell lung cancer. Thus, this regimen will take care both. It is important however to make sure that your oncologist get more information including type ( adeno vs squamous etc), some molecular evaluations ( egfr, alk, ross-1) to the nsclc on the right lung.
