Webcast - Molecular-Targeted Therapies in Lung Cancer: Practical Application of Clinical Trials Data

This accredited continuing education activity “Webcast-Molecular-Targeted Therapies in Lung Cancer: Practical applications of clinical trials data," is recorded from the live oncology webinar held on 7/10/2021. 

If you participated in the live webinar titled - Molecular-Targeted Therapies in Lung Cancer: Practical applications of clinical trials data on 7/10/2021 and claimed CME credits/MOC points for that activity, you do not qualify for CME credits/MOC points for your participation in this enduring activity. This is a recorded content from that webinar on 7/10/2021.  However, you may enroll in this activity to review the contents. 

The recorded lectures and subsequent discussions feature leading experts in lung cancer who provide a comprehensive overview of implications of actionable molecular alterations in lung cancer. 

The goal of this activity is to improve the knowledge and competence of learners to apply practice-changing clinical data and expert recommendations to optimize clinical outcomes for their patients with lung cancer. This program features in-depth discussions and analysis of the latest scientific findings and practice-changing advances (including the data presented at the 2021 ASCO Annual Meeting in June, 2021) in molecular testing and targeted-therapies for lung cancer. Expert faculty will utilize didactics, case-based presentations and related panel discussions, and aim to place molecular testing into clinical context and discuss how the results may effectively contribute to patient care. 

This educational activity will augment healthcare providers’ foundation of knowledge and clinical competence in several areas, including:

  • Role of different platforms, including next generation sequencing, in testing for actionable molecular alterations to identify targeted therapy options in lung cancer. 
  • Current and evolving paradigms in a biomarker driven precision oncology approach for management of lung cancer.
  • Trends, challenges, controversies, and limitations of precision oncology approaches and targeted therapies in management of lung cancer. 

REGISTRATION FEES:

This activity is free for all healthcare providers who are not employees of an ineligible entity. Please select "non-industry learner" when you are ready to register for the course, and the price will reset to $0.
