Abstract

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive neuroendocrine tumor characterized by initial response to chemotherapy and radiotherapy followed by relapse and rapid progression. Delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3) is an inhibitory Notch ligand that is highly expressed on the surface of most SCLC tumors; DLL3 expression is minimal and mainly cytoplasmic in normal tissues. AMG 757 is an investigational HLE BiTE immune therapy designed to redirect cytotoxic T cells to SCLC cells by binding to DLL3 on tumor cells and CD3 on T cells, resulting in T-cell activation and expansion and T cell–dependent killing of tumor cells.
