PROGRAM OVERVIEW
This live virtual activity provides an opportunity for community oncologists and advanced practice providers to interact with experts to quickly get up to speed on the latest advances in EGFR-mutated NSCLC. During this program, faculty will describe the prognostic and predictive roles of common EGFR-mutations and the high risk clinical and disease characteristics to be aware of in patients with NSCLC. Through a review of clinical trial data and recent guidelines updates, faculty will increase confidence in individualizing treatment that addresses the underlying molecular pathology of disease. Participants will be encouraged to share their own cases and engage with faculty throughout this activity. Innovative learning platforms and practice tools will reinforce incorporation of targeted treatments into practice to help improve outcomes for patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC.
