7th Annual Spring to Life Conference on Lung Cancer

October 10, 2020
The focus of the 2020 Spring to Life Conference is Lung Cancer. New York Oncology Hematology (NYOH) has identified an ongoing unmet need for medical education in the area of lung cancer. To meet this need, NYOH, in collaboration with The University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine, myMedEd, Inc. and a panel of expert faculty from the academic, research, and community practice settings, developed an accredited, multi-supported, ½ -day educational conference. This is the seventh of these annual conferences that include programming for cancer clinicians.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed for medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, surgical oncologists, thoracic surgeons, pulmonologists, radiologists, interventional radiologists, pathologists, oncology nurses, advanced practice providers, family and primary care practitioners, allied health professionals, and any other individuals with an interest in the care of patients with lung cancer.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:
 
  • Describe current and evolving management strategies for patients with localized and locally advanced, non-small cell lung cancer.
  • Identify best practices in biomarker testing and the utilization of biomarkers to drive treatment decisions for patients with lung cancer.
  • Explain the application of targeted therapy and immunotherapy in the treatment of NSCLC.
  • Outline the clinical trial data on the use of molecular drivers in the management of patients with advanced, non-small cell lung cancer.
  • Summarize current and emerging strategies in the management of patients with advanced, non-small cell lung cancer without driver mutations.
