Summary

This early-phase trial tested a new drug (entinostat) added to a standard treatment for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer, a fast-growing cancer that has spread. Only 3 people took part to find the safest dose and check for side effects. The goal was to see if the combination could work better than standard care alone.
