abstract = "In this commentary, we review the timeline of clinical trials and regulatory actions of approved immune checkpoint inhibitors for small cell lung cancer, discuss challenges faced by regulatory agencies, and highlight paradoxical lessons that emerge. Accelerated approvals may fail to expedite drugs to market in this setting and further research on overall survival benefit is needed to prove drug efficacy.",
