CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

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

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Appraise recent FDA approvals, investigator perspectives and available data related to the management of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with EGFR or BRAF mutations, and discern how this information should be applied to patient care.
    • Recognize the spectrum and prevalence of emerging biomarkers for treatment (eg, RET and NTRK fusions, MET exon 14 mutations, HER2 and ROS1 alterations) in metastatic NSCLC, and develop an understanding of available and investigational therapies that might benefit patients harboring each of these abnormalities.
    • Recall available genetic testing platforms for biomarker assessment for patients with NSCLC.
    • Consider recent FDA approvals, expert perspectives and available clinical trial data to determine the role of immune checkpoint inhibitors in the treatment of NSCLC.
