CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

  • TARGET AUDIENCE
    This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of lung cancer.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Evaluate available and emerging data documenting the efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody-based approaches as neoadjuvant, adjuvant or consolidation therapy for nonmetastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
    • Acknowledge the FDA approval of adjuvant EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy for localized NSCLC with an EGFR mutation, and identify patients for whom this treatment would be warranted.
    • Counsel patients with metastatic NSCLC with EGFR mutations about available therapeutic options.
    • Understand the biology of EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations, and evaluate how recently approved agents should be used in the care of patients with these abnormalities.
    • Assess the efficacy and safety of commercially available and investigational therapies for patients with metastatic NSCLC with ALK or ROS1 rearrangements, and use this information to select first- and later-line therapy.
    • Recollect other oncogenic pathways mediating the pathogenesis of tumors (ie, RET, MET, HER2 and KRAS G12C), and recall published data with agents exploiting these targets.
    • Review recent therapeutic advances related to the use of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy, chemobiologic therapy or anti-CTLA-4 antibodies for metastatic NSCLC, and discern how these approaches can be optimally employed in clinical practice.
    • Reflect on investigational agents and strategies currently in testing for lung cancer, and appropriately refer eligible patients for clinical trial participation.
