WebcastFaculty
OVERVIEW
Community Practice Connections: 18th Annual International Lung Cancer Congress is organized by Physicians Education Resource, LLC (PER) and will be held during Oct 31, 2017 - Oct 31, 2018.
The target audience for this medical event is directed toward oncologists, nurse practitioners (NPs), nurses, and physician assistants (PAs) involved in the treatment and management of patients with lung cancers. Pharmacists, researchers, fellows, and other healthcare professionals interested in the treatment of lung cancers may also participate. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 1.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.
Conference Overview :
This Conference consists of a series of interactive clinical vignettes, short video interviews of leading experts in lung cancer, and short summaries of clinical data related to these issues. The video interviews address decision points in the clinical vignettes, as well as questions commonly faced in the community oncology practice setting.
Conference Objectives :
At the conclusion of this activity, you should be better prepared to:
• Delineate testing strategies for the diagnosis and identification of biomarkers which can be used to facilitate clinical decision making in multiple lines of lung cancer care
• Explain evolving treatment strategies for early-stage and locally advanced lung cancer
• Determine optimized sequencing strategies for the management of advanced lung cancer based on clinical data sets, performance status, and tumor characteristics
• Assess current data sets and ongoing clinical trials evaluating single agent and combination immunotherapeutic approaches
• Place recent clinical trial results on chemotherapeutic, targeted, and immunotherapeutic strategies in the context of current treatment standards and evolving paradigms in the management of lung cancer
• Explain the current status of cooperative group trials and methods to facilitate participation in clinical trials that are assessing emerging strategies to treat lung cancer
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
