We are happy to share the videos from this live and webcast forum. Our first video welcomes all to the event, and it was our extreme pleasure to have Chris Draft and Dr. Ross Camidge join us to start the day! This is followed by keynote topic "Does NED matter? Using “curative” surgery or radiation techniques to treat "incurable" advanced lung cancer," with Dr. Rob Meguid, and a panel discussion featuring Dr. Meguid, Dr. Chad Rusthoven, Dr. Ross Camidge, and chaired by Dr. H. Jack West.

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.
This question is not for a specific patient, it is designed to understand how oncologists would approach this problem. There’s a 50 year old stage IIIb unresectable NSCLC patient with ALK positive FISH biopsy result. PD-L1 25%. ECOG 0-1. Should this patient be treated first line with Chemoradiation+Durvalumab or Alectinib? Would the recommendation be any different with EGFR mutation?

Nathan Pennell, MD, PhD, Director of Lung Cancer Medical Oncology at the Cleveland Clinic Taussig Cancer Center in Cleveland Ohio discusses new options in acquired resistance for ALK positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
The FDA just approved a new therapy for the approximately 4% of patients with NSCLC who have the molecular marker known as an ALK rearrangement. The agent Zykadia (ceritinib), a "second generation" ALK inhibitor that is more effective than Xalkori (crizotinib) in lab models of ALK-positive NSCLC, and the new approval was for Zykadia as first line treatment for ALK-positive lung cancer, a setting where we have historically favored Xalkori since it was approved in 2011. .
