Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of limited or extensive stage SCLC which failed one prior platinum-containing regimen and with a chemotherapy-free interval (CTFI, time from the last dose of first-line chemotherapy to the occurrence of progressive disease) ≥ 30 days. Small-cell carcinoma of unknown primary site with or without neuroendocrine features confirmed in histology test(s) performed on metastatic lesion(s) are eligible, if Ki-67/MIB-1 is expressed in \>50% of tumor cells. 4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) ≤ 2. 5. Adequate hematological, renal, metabolic and hepatic function within 7-10 days prior to randomization 6.

Limited-stage patients who are candidates for local or regional therapy 5. Impending need for palliative RT or surgery for pathological fractures and/or for medullary compression within four weeks prior to randomization. 6. Symptomatic or progressing or steroid requiring Central Nervous System (CNS) involvement disease at least four weeks prior to randomization 7. Concomitant diseases/conditions: Angina, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure or clinically significant valvular heart disease, arrhythmia, immunodeficiency (including known HIV seropositive), ongoing or treatment-requiring chronic liver disease, active infection, oxygen requirement within two weeks prior to randomization, diffuse interstitial lung disease (ILD) or pulmonary fibrosis, second invasive malignancy treated with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, invasive fungal infections requiring systemic treatment within 12 weeks of randomization. 8.
