NSCLC: Molecular Testing in the Metastatic Setting

Leticia Nogueira, PhD, MPH, highlights how facilities exposed to wildfires tend to have longer lengths of stay for patients undergoing surgery for NSCLC.

Experts from Washington University in St. Louis discuss trial results and infusion-related reaction management for amivantamab in EGFR-mutated NSCLC.

In the phase 2 EMBRACE trial, ensartinib demonstrated an ORR of 53.3%, a DCR of 86.7%, and a tumor shrinkage rate of 33.3% in patients with METex14-positive NSCLC.

Terence T. Sio, MD, MS, highlights advances such as proton beam radiotherapy that may improve outcomes for those with non–small cell lung cancer.

Future work may need to assess whether extended hospital stays improve surgical care outcomes during disasters, according to one of the study authors.

Retrospective data may offer actionable guidance for clinicians treating patients with non–small cell lung cancer and brain metastases.
