TCEs have achieved major success in hematologic malignancies and now show promise in selected solid tumors, with the approvals of tebentafusp and tarlatamab in uveal melanoma and small cell lung cancer, respectively, establishing proof of concept that durable benefit is possible...ADC-checkpoint inhibitor combinations are similarly reshaping solid tumor therapy, most notably in urothelial carcinoma, where enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab has demonstrated substantial survival gains...Emerging drug engineering approaches and biomarker-driven patient selection aim to improve efficacy while limiting toxicity. Together, these advances support a new era of precision immuno-oncology, but broader success will require improved biomarkers, rational combinations, and an understanding of resistance mechanisms.

Platinum-etoposide has long been the standard first-line therapy, and the recent incorporation of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) such as atezolizumab (IMpower133) and durvalumab (CASPIAN, ADRIATIC) has modestly improved survival, including a new role for durvalumab as a consolidation therapy in limited-stage SCLC...Emerging approaches include DLL3-directed bispecific T-cell engagers (BiTEs), such as tarlatamab and obrixtamig, which have shown promising efficacy in relapsed disease, and next-generation antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) targeting DLL3, B7-H3, TROP2, and SEZ6...Future therapeutic efforts will require biomarker-driven strategies that incorporate molecular subtyping (ASCL1, NEUROD1, POU2F3, and YAP1) and immune profiling to facilitate precise treatment selection. Combining ICIs, BiTEs, ADCs, and cellular or radioligand therapies in rational, evidence-based regimens represents a promising avenue to improve outcomes in this historically intractable disease.
