BVSEV - Ned's Chart of Treatment vs QOL

Article
In recent discussions, and in honor of our 15 year anniversary, some of our board members and staff came up with a list of their favorite patient education pieces. 

 

Our dear Ned was a stalwart supporter of GRACE, and had a huge part of us becoming the amazing community that we have been. 

We sadly lost Ned in 2011, but his humor, goodwill, and kindness lives on.  We at GRACE will always remember him as a founding member of our community.  

 

ASCO/ESMO 2021 Lung Cancer Recap

Video

Drs. H. Jack West, Joan Schiller, and Isabel Preeshagul gathered this past year (virtually) to review information presented at ASCO and ESMO 2021, regarding patients dealing with a Lung Cancer diagnosis.

For this series, the doctors discuss new trials for patients with NSCLC and SCLC.  The video discussions cover the following topics:

Local Therapies for Metastatic Lung Cancer Who, What, Why, When and How?

Discussion Topic
Stage IV NSCLC

Hi Grace Members,

Grace is happy to present in partnership with the Swedish Cancer Institute " Local Therapies for Metastatic Lung Cancer Who, What, Why, When and How?"  this Saturday, November 10, 2018 | 10:00 am– 1:00 pm Pacific time.   This seminar will be available at no charge in person and as a live webinar.

I joined GRACE as a caregiver for my husband who had a Pancoast tumor, NSCLC stage III in 2009. He had curative chemo/rads then it was believed he had a recurrence in the spine/oligometastasis that was radiated. He's 10 years out from treatment.

Osimertinib (Tagrisso) with dexamethasone

Discussion Topic
General NSCLC

Is anyone on Tagrisso (osimertinib) taking or took dexamethasone? I want to start my mum on osimertinib, but she is taking dexamethasone for brain lesion edema. I learned there might be interaction between these two : dexamethasone may reduce the blood levels of osimertinib, which may make the medication less effective in some cases. Does anyone have any experience or recommendations and did you have good response from Tagrisso while on dexamethasone?
