This slide presentation is the second part of a lecture I gave at the Seattle-based non-profit Cancer Lifeline a few months ago. This covers the evidence supporting post-operative (adjuvant) chemotherapy for patients with early stage NSCLC, the need to recognize that this does not apply to all patients who have undergone surgery, and the emerging clinical research and ongoing trials that may lead to improvements in our cure rate for early stage NSCLC patients in the future.
Here is the presentation in video format, the audio version, transcript, and a pdf file of the figures. I hope it's helpful.

My understanding of ADCs is very basic. I plan to study Dr. Rous’ discussion to broaden that understanding.

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.
