Clinical Transfers®: Optimizing Frontline Immunotherapy for High PD-L1 Expressers with NSCLC
Program Overview
The landscape of precision medicine for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is continually evolving with an ever-expanding armamentarium of regimens targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 axis. In this activity, Roy S. Herbst, MD, PhD and Sarah B. Goldberg, MD, MPH, share the latest data for current and emerging checkpoint inhibitor monotherapies in advanced NSCLC with high PD-L1 expression and provide expert guidance on optimizing frontline treatment selection.
Oncologists and pulmonologists involved in the treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Educational Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:
Analyze key safety and efficacy data for current and emerging frontline immunotherapy options in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression levels ≥50%
Assess the potential impact of emerging frontline immunotherapeutic approaches on treatment selection in patients with advanced NSCLC and high PD-L1 expression
