Dr. Natasha Leighl's Highlights in Lung Cancer from 2012: Developments for EGFR Mutation-Positive NSCLC
Author
Howard (Jack) West, MD

EGFR Mutn Pos NSCLCHere is the first of the awaited podcasts from Dr. Natasha Leighl's presentation on "Highlights in Lung Cancer from 2012".  Dr. Leighl is a longtime friend who is a lung cancer expert at Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and she covered a wide range of topics that represented promising developments in the field for the past year, some of which likely to lead to new treatment options for patients in the clinic over the next few years. 

The first part of her talk covered new information on potential treatment options for patients with advanced NSCLC that has an activating EGFR mutation.  Here's the video and audio versions of the podcast, along with the figures for it.  (We're going to forgo the transcript, since it's a time-consuming process, and I don't think there's a major audience for it -- tell us if there's a clear need for the transcripts for these programs that we're not seeing).
