small cell pc options?

my father has been treating this for 5 years. New biopsy revealed small cell pc which was also in the initial biopsy. The rechallenge of carboplatin and etoposide doesn’t seem to be working. They have suggested immunotherapy ( not sure what type). Thoughts? Also any research out there regarding PRRT? Any other trials? I thought there were threads but couldn’t find.
