Target Audience

The primary target audience for this activity are medical oncologists, thoracic oncologists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and nurses in oncology settings.

Program Overview

The most common subtype of lung cancer is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which accounts for 82% of all lung cancer cases. While advances in targeted therapy are transforming outcomes for these patients, challenges remain in the management of this disease. Clinicians must stay up to date on the latest treatments and know how to apply best practices in clinical decision-making. Two expert thoracic oncologists will explore the latest clinical evidence and strategies to more effectively collaborate with other care providers to manage advanced/metastatic NSCLC, especially epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant disease. They will also discuss early detection of biomarkers using advanced diagnostic testing and evolving treatment options for adjuvant therapy. Pre-recorded patient vignettes will frame discussions and provide additional patient perspectives.

Learning Objectives

After completing this activity, the participant should be better able to: 

  • Discuss early detection of biomarkers using advanced diagnostics testing for EGFR-mutant advanced/metastatic NSCLC
  • Apply current and emerging clinical evidence to effectively manage patients with advanced/metastatic NSCLC including treatment pathways for patients with classical and uncommon EGFR mutations
  • Evaluate the evolving treatment options for adjuvant therapy in resectable early-stage NSCLC
  • Review strategies to facilitate shared decision-making with patients and their caregivers in the context of multidisciplinary care
