PROGRAM OVERVIEW
This virtually live has been designed to meet the educational needs of community-based and academic medical oncologists and other healthcare professionals, including oncology nurses, pulmonary oncologists, pharmacists, and nurse practitioners to ensure an up-to-date understanding of the latest data in the management of NSCLC through checkpoint inhibition strategies. We aim to help HCPs better consider immunopathologic factors in the pathogenesis of NSCLC and strategies for targeting NSCLC based on appropriate application of clinical biomarkers; recognize the latest clinical trial updates concerning front-line use of immuno-oncology strategies in NSCLC and, lastly, to evaluate the latest biomarkers for selection of therapies for the management of NSCLC.
