In a retrospective study, serum from patients with biopsy‐proven small‐cell lung cancer (SCLC) at the time of diagnosis was studied prior to treatment. The sera were analyzed for the presence of neuronal autoantibodies blinded to clinical status. The main finding was demonstration that neuronal autoantibodies were frequent at the time of diagnosis ...
