Dear Doctor,

My uncle, 62 years old, just had an operation. We seek for treatment solutions, any new treatment? The following is his case:

2 cm peripherial small cell carcinoma in the right lower lobe, with 3.1 cm hilar lymphadenopathy as well as 2 additional pulmonary nodules. No distant metastasis to brain, liver, bone, etc. Stage 2.

Any successful treatment are appreciated very much.

Unfortunately it is not appropriate for me to suggest treatments over the internet, so I cannot help you. typically chemotherapy and radiation are the mainstay of treatment but his oncologist needs to decide what is best for him.

Thanks for reply.
I wonder where is the way to track new treatment in this area, including trials. Such as website, phone, mailbox..., any help appreciated very much.

you can check this website under clinical trials and it will lead you to a website that lists clinical trials. also try the websites for the national cancer institute and sloan-kettering hospital in NYC. they are excellent resources for lung cancer information.
