Abstract

Patients with SCLC have historically been characterised by poor overall survival (OS) and high risk for IMD, but large-scale real-world evidence on clinical presentation and treatment in this population is lacking. These patients traditionally receive whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) for IMD, however, a recent systematic review has indicated that OS following stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) may be non-inferior compared with WBRT. We aim to describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with SCLC and IMD in Ontario, Canada.
