Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to find out if giving oral HYCAMTIN to patients with relapsed small cell lung cancer benefits them. The study will compare how long patients live when they are given therapy to make them feel better (active symptom control) to the length of time patients live when they are also receiving oral HYCAMTIN.
