Key Takeaways from the Small Cell Lung Cancer Pipeline Report
- On December 10, 2025 — GSK plc (LSE/NYSE: GSK) announced that its B7-H3–targeted antibody-drug conjugate, GSK’227—now known by its International Nonproprietary Name, risvutatug rezetecan—has been granted Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). The designation is supported by early clinical findings from the phase I ARTEMIS-001 trial, which demonstrated durable responses in patients with extensive-stage SCLC (ES-SCLC) treated with risvutatug rezetecan.
- On December 10, 2025- AbbVie initiated a study is to assess safety, dose, change in disease activity of ABBV-706 given with atezolizumab, compared to standard of care (SOC) treatment (etoposide, carboplatin, atezolizumab, and optional lurbinectedin). ABBV-706 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of SCLC. There are multiple treatment arms in this study. Participants will either receive ABBV-706 given with atezolizumab, at 1 of 2 doses, or SOC. Approximately 180 adult participants will be enrolled in the study across sites worldwide.
- On December 08, 2025- Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC conducted a study will consist of two parts. Part 1 will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of gocatamig and I-DXd at doses determined in study MK-6070-001 (NCT: NCT04471727). Part 2 will assess the safety and tolerability of gocatamig in participants in Japan and China. Part 3 will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of gocatamig with durvalumab.
- On December 08, 2025- Daiichi Sankyo announced a phase 3 study is to assess whether treatment with I-DXd improves objective response rate (ORR) and prolongs overall survival (OS) compared with treatment of physician’s choice among participants with relapsed SCLC. The secondary objectives of the study are to further evaluate the efficacy/safety of I-DXd, health economics and outcome research measures (including patient reported outcomes), immunogenicity of I-DXd, B7-H3 protein expression, and characterize the pharmacokinetics of I-DXd.

Small Cell Lung Cancer Overview
Small cell lung cancer is fast-growing lung cancer that develops in the tissues of the lungs. It is the least common type of lung cancer and characterized by rapid, uncontrolled growth of certain cells in the lungs. Small cell lung cancer (SCLC), previously known as oat cell carcinoma, is considered distinct from other lung cancers, which are called non–small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) because of their clinical and biologic characteristics. Small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) arises in peribronchial locations and infiltrates the bronchial submucosa.
Small Cell Lung Cancer Emerging Drugs Profile
- AMG 757: Amgen
AMG 757 is a half-life extended (HLE) anti- delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3) x anti-CD3 BiTE (bispecific T cell engager) molecule. It is being investigated in Phase I clinical studies for the treatment of prostate cancer and Small cell lung cancer.
- APG-1252: Ascentage Pharma
APG-1252 is a highly potent, small-molecule based Bcl-2 family protein inhibitor drug. APG-1252 is designed to treat SCLC, NSCLC, lymphoma, and other solid tumors by selectively blocking Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL to restore the apoptosis process. The drug is in Phase I/II clinical studies for the treatment of SCLC.
