This program is intended for oncologists, nurses, and other providers who care for patients with NSCLC

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:
  • Implement best practices and guideline-endorsed molecular testing algorithms in NSCLC, including the use of tissue-based and blood-based biomarker testing for evaluation of EGFR mutation status in newly diagnosed patients and those with acquired resistance following EGFR TKI therapy

  • Compare available efficacy and safety data of systemic EGFR-targeted therapies throughout the continuum of EGFR mutation–positive NSCLC from the first-line setting to the second-line setting and beyond (including outcomes by type of EGFR mutation)
  • Plan sequential therapy based on an understanding of the mechanisms of resistance following EGFR TKI treatment, including the incidence of T790M and amplification of MET
  • Identify patients eligible to enroll on important ongoing clinical trials evaluating promising investigational agents and combinations for EGFR mutation–positive NSCLC
