Abstract Background Chemotherapy is the standard treatment for small cell lung cancer (SCLC), but chemotherapy resistance and adverse reactions remain major problems. Although Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is wildly applied for patients with SCLC in China, the evidence of TCM in the treatment for SCLC is limited. Purpose To evaluate the efficacy and safety of TCM combined with chemotherapy for patients with SCLC. Method We conducted a systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, the VIP Information Database, and the Wanfang Database for randomized-controlled trials (RCTs) that are relevant. The included studies were reviewed by two investigators, with relevant data extracted independently. The effect estimate of interest was the relative risk (RR) or mean difference with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). Results 22 RCTs involving 1887 patients were included in this study. Compared with patients treated with chemotherapy© alone, those with Chinese herbal medicine and chemotherapy (TCM-C) had better therapeutic effects (RR = 1.295, 95% CI 1.205–1.391, P 0.05)
