What's the best type of brain surgery? The one that is cancelled because all of your brain mets have shrunk, including one scheduled to be removed today, in the 11 days since you started taking 1800 mg alectinib and 800 mg capmatinib. #lcsm #TTLC22

Panel at #TTLC22 covering many less common mutations chaired by Drs. Amy L. Cummings, MD PhD and Stinchcombe with panel of Drs. Ross, Wade Iams, Paik, Dr. Ravi Salgia, and Lisberg. Common themes: importance of advocacy groups and trials for less common targets (and test, test, test!) #LCSM

Neoadjuvant nivolumab plus chemotherapy FDA approved for resectable NSCLC! Based on phase III CheckMate 816 study that showed adding neoadjuvant immunotherapy increased pathologic CR (24% from 2%) and improved EFS with better surgical outcomes. #LCSM news.bms.com/news/corporate…

Most clinical health trials lack diversity, a problem that can have a negative impact on health outcomes. Maria Garcia-Jimenez, MD MHS of . & @DGSOMUCLA is working to improve cancer research diversity & helping to reduce disparities across the cancer care continuum.

Dr. Estela Rodriguez NEJM Agree 💯! Engaging with communities, building trustworthiness, and involving minority patients in clinical research design is key to addressing #disparities in #clinicaltrials participation.

Very high PDL1 is an important stratification factor in multi arm trials evaluating new IOs given differential survival for this very high group. Should be reported to ensure balanced PDL1 >=90% in control and experimental arms. Penn Medicine - Abramson Cancer Center #lcsm #IO

This is great news for ALK+ patients with resected early lung cancer and I am very much looking forward to seeing this highly anticipated ALINA trial data BTOG

International Lung Cancer Congress (ILCC), now in 25th year. Nothing like it! 3 day “think tank” purposely scheduled about six weeks after ASCO. Enough time to have digested the breakthroughs and the failures, with audience response device Q & A to weigh in on the reasons. 👏👏👏
