In these video series, Dr. Iyengar discusses two indications, or timepoints, where radiation and/or surgery may be used to improve the survival outcomes in metastatic, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, specifically focusing on consolidation. He discusses various trials, but also the importance of how radiation would help patients who were receiving immunotherapy-based regiments. This led to the discussion of NRG-LU002, a randomized phase II/III trial of maintenance systemic therapy vs. local consolidative therapy (LCT) plus maintenance systemic therapy for limited metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
He also discusses how biology affects non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) outcomes, the results of NRG-LU002, a randomized phase II/III trial of maintenance systemic therapy vs. local consolidative therapy (LCT) plus maintenance systemic therapy for limited metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and how to select patients for the optimal therapy for metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Dr. Singhi's reprise on appropriate treatment, "Right patient, right time, right team".
While Dr. Ryckman described radiation oncology as "the perfect blend of nerd skills and empathy".

My understanding of ADCs is very basic. I plan to study Dr. Rous’ discussion to broaden that understanding.
An antibody–drug conjugate (ADC) works a bit like a Trojan horse. It has three main components:
Bispecifics, or bispecific antibodies, are advanced immunotherapy drugs engineered to have two binding sites, allowing them to latch onto two different targets simultaneously, like a cancer cell and a T-cell, effectively...
The prefix “oligo–” means few. Oligometastatic (at diagnosis) Oligoprogression (during treatment)
There will be a discussion, “Studies in Oligometastatic NSCLC: Current Data and Definitions,” which will focus on what we...
Radiation therapy is primarily a localized treatment, meaning it precisely targets a specific tumor or area of the body, unlike systemic treatments (like chemotherapy) that affect the whole body.

A Brief Tornado. I love the analogy Dr. Antonoff gave us to describe her presentation. I felt it earlier too and am looking forward to going back for deeper dive.
