Abstract Anti-glial nuclear antibody (AGNA) is an onconeuroal antibody targeting the nuclei of Bergmann glia in the cerebellum and Anti-SRY-related HMG-box 1 (SOX1). It is highly specific for small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and correlates to the appearance of paraneoplastic neurological syndromes such as Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (pLEMS) and paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD) amongst others. Herein, we present a SCLC patient with rapidly progressive PCD, LEMS and axonal polyneuropathy associated with AGNA/SOX1-antibodies, successfully treated with plasma-exchange (PLEX).
