How Important is the Impact of Smoking Cessation on Survival?

Article

Drs. Ben Solomon, Leora Horn, & Jack West review impressive data demonstrating a striking survival improvement from successful efforts at smoking cessation among smokers undergoing lung cancer CT screening.

Have Your Practices Changed Regarding Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation for Extensive Stage SCLC Patients?

Article

Drs. Ben Solomon, Leora Horn, & Jack West discuss whether the data highlighting cognitive deficits from whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) for patients with brain metastases should change our recommendations for prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI).

  • Read more about Have Your Practices Changed Regarding Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation for Extensive Stage SCLC Patients?

What Are Your Current Practices for Consolidation Chest Radiation for Extensive SCLC?

Article

Drs. Leora Horn, Ben Solomon, & Jack West debate whether results from a European trial of chest radiation after chemotherapy for extensive stage small cell lung cancer should lead to a change in treatment for this setting.

Are There Clinically Significant Differences Among the Third Generation EGFR Inhibitors?

Article

Drs. Ben Solomon, Leora Horn, & Jack West compare the clinical data with the third generation EGFR TKIs so active in acquired resistance and consider whether there are significant differences between them.

  • Read more about Are There Clinically Significant Differences Among the Third Generation EGFR Inhibitors?

Can or Will Specific Molecular Characteristics Help Determine Which ALK Inhibitor to Choose?

Video

Drs. Leora Horn, Ben Solomon, & Jack West review whether there are specific factors that should make one second generation ALK inhibitor more ideal than other competing options for a specific patient with an ALK rearrangement.

  • Read more about Can or Will Specific Molecular Characteristics Help Determine Which ALK Inhibitor to Choose?

Are There Clinically Significant Differences Among the Second Generation ALK Inhibitors?

Article

Drs. Ben Solomon, Leora Horn, & Jack West evaluate the evidence and consider whether there are clinically significant differences among the second generation ALK inhibitors that would lead to a reason to prefer one over another for a particular patient.

  • Read more about Are There Clinically Significant Differences Among the Second Generation ALK Inhibitors?

Does the Specific EGFR Mutation (Including "Rare" Mutations) Matter When Choosing an Oral EGFR Inhibitor?

Article

Drs. Leora Horn, Ben Solomon, & Jack West discuss the open question of whether there are clinically significant differences among leading EGFR tyrosine kinases based on the specific EGFR mutation to be treated.

  • Read more about Does the Specific EGFR Mutation (Including "Rare" Mutations) Matter When Choosing an Oral EGFR Inhibitor?

Can Patients Benefit from Broad vs. Focal Genetic Testing?

Article

Drs. Ben Solomon, Leora Horn, & Jack West evaluate the merits of broad genetic testing with a "next generation sequencing" platform compared to selective, limited testing for the most proven driver mutations in patients with advanced NSCLC.

  • Read more about Can Patients Benefit from Broad vs. Focal Genetic Testing?

Are There Clinically Significant Differences Among the First and Second Generation EGFR TKIs (Iressa, Tarceva, Gilotrif)?

Article

Drs. Ben Solomon, Leora Horn, & Jack West review whether the data and clinical experience suggest any clinically significant differences among the first and second generation EGFR TKIs (Iressa, Tarceva, Gilotrif/Giotrif).

  • Read more about Are There Clinically Significant Differences Among the First and Second Generation EGFR TKIs (Iressa, Tarceva, Gilotrif)?

What Are the Treatment Choices for EGFR Mutation-Positive Acquired Resistance in Patients Without a T790M Mutation?

Article

Drs. Ben Solomon, Leora Horn, & Jack West consider the range of treatment options for patients with an EGFR mutation and acquired resistance that does not harbor a T790M mutation.
