Recently, Sen and colleagues ( Cancer Discov. 2019; https://doi.org/10.1158/2159-8290.CD-18-1020) demonstrated that DDR inhibition can activate the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) innate immune pathway, providing strong rationale for combining DDR inhibition and ICB to treat SCLC %U https://www.cell.com/trends/pharmacological-sciences/fulltext/S0165-6147(19)30063-X
