Integrating Advances from Stage IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) into the Curative Setting

Duarte, CA US
May 23, 2022

Cancer care and its treatment is a fast-evolving environment.  The advances in research have led to improvements in overall survival.  This knowledge can lead to individualized and targeted treatments that lead to this improved survival, however, staying up to date with these advancements is a challenge in this fast-changing landscape. Providers in the community setting are typically seeing many different cancer types, which is hard to stay current on all.  As it is a challenge for oncology providers to stay up to date, this activity seeks to bridge the gap by sharing these recent advances, which can lead to better patient outcomes.
 

Target Audience

AccessHope physicians, nurses, and patient navigators.
