Dr. JessicaJLinMD at #RomeLung25 updates treatment for #ALK NSCLC. Many TKIs approved, PFS greatest for lorlatinib but NVL-655 (neladalkib) emerging as an active agent in later lines and will be compared to alectinib in 1L in phase 3 trial.

Three years ago today, I had absolutely no idea what had just hit me. Stage 4 ALK Positive Lung Cancer at just 35 years of age? What on earth was that? Even now, I’m not sure I have better answers. I’ve learned to navigate this so-called “new normal,” but let’s be honest—it’s

#ALKSummit25 KOL panel: What’s the role of local consolidation therapy in ALK+ #lungcancer? Dr D. Ross Camidge shares his views: “It’s not necessarily for everyone. How far do we push it? Should we consolidate w chemotherapy? Lots of questions & variables.” #LCSM #StrongerTogether

At #ALKSummit25 Dana-Farber’s Nancy Campbell says: We hear that “exercise is medicine” & now the CHALLENGE trial confirms it’s true. The good news is not much more required than sneakers & 3-4 brisk 45-60 min walks per week to improve survival. #StrongerTogether #LCSM

Today on #WorldLungCancerDay I want you to know that lung cancer is NOT just a disease of smokers. Increasingly it is happening in young, fit, non-smokers like me. We need urgent answers from research & attention in the policy space. Else we can forget about our demographic

Today is World Lung Cancer Day We stand with those facing it. We remember those we’ve lost. We speak up for those who don’t have the words yet. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide Research matters. And every single life impacted by this disease matters
