Program Goal

The goal of this initiative is to increase clinicians’ knowledge and improve their competence in understanding the latest advances in targeting genomic pathways for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) through a review of the current and ongoing research/clinical trials focused on new and emerging EGFR-based therapies.

Target Audience

This program is designed to meet the educational needs of oncologists, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment and management of patients with NSCLC.

Learning Objectives

Following this activity, participants should be able to:

  • Review the importance of testing for genetic biomarkers in patients with NSCLC to assist in treatment decision-making
  • Discuss updated recommendations for use of drugs targeting EGFR+ mutations and evaluate potential applications of emerging therapies targeting EGFR+ mutations
  • Describe mechanisms of resistance in treatment of EGFR+ NSCLC and develop strategies to overcome resistance to EGFR+ therapies
