Closing thoughts from a panel of NSCLC experts, with an emphasis on improving access to and utilization of biomarker testing for patients with the disease.

Experts consider how they might approach third-line treatment selection for patients with EGFR exon 20-mutated mNSCLC who experience disease progression on amivantamab or other second-line therapies.

Dr Velázquez Mañana revisits the second patient case and details the use of second-line amivantamab for the patient’s disease progression, and the panel confers about adverse event management strategies for patients taking this regimen.

Dr Porter presents recent conference data on a matching-adjusted indirect comparison of amivantamab and mobocertinib for treatment of EGFR exon 20-mutated mNSCLC, and panelists weigh in on factors influencing selection between the two regimens.

Dr Jason Porter presents safety and efficacy data from a Phase 1/2 study on mobocertinib in patients with mNSCLC.

A brief overview of study design, patient demographics, data from the phase 1 CHRYSALIS trial, which assessed the safety and efficacy of amivantamab in patients with EGFR exon 20-mutated, advanced or metastatic NSCLC.

Continuing the discussion of the presented case of EGFR exon 20-mutant mNSCLC, Dr Velázquez Mañana outlines how the patient experienced disease progression on first-line treatment, after which the panel shares clinical insights and best practices on how they might approach subsequent treatment selection in this scenario.

Dr Ana Velázquez Mañana introduces a second patient case, a 59-year-old Black man diagnosed with mNSCLC and an EGFR exon 20 insertion, and outlines first-line treatment selection for the patient.

Expert panelists react to the presented data on racial and socioeconomic disparities in biomarker testing for patients with mNSCLC, and align on ways to address and overcome these disparities.

Dr Jason Porter introduces three recent retrospective observational studies on use of biomarker testing in mNSCLC, which identified racial and socioeconomic disparities in testing patterns.

Panelists continue their dialogue on common challenges and barriers to use of biomarker testing in NSCLC, and share potential strategies to optimize use of testing.

Dr Vail shares insight into his ideal institutional approach to biomarker testing for NSCLC, emphasizing the need for local molecular pathology expertise and available in-house biomarker panels.

Eric Vail, MD introduces a patient case, a 71-year-old Asian woman newly diagnosed with mNSCLC, followed by a focused discussion on how the panel would have approached biomarker testing and treatment initiation for the patient.

The panel discusses challenges that clinicians may experience when ordering biomarker testing for patients with mNSCLC, including insurance coverage barriers, timing of testing, insufficient biopsy samples, and inconclusive test results.

Panelists discuss available biomarker testing methodologies for metastatic NSCLC (mNSCLC), sharing how they optimize molecular profiling in their practices and whether they typically use commercial or in-house tests.

Jason Porter, MD, and fellow panelists discuss how expression of NSCLC biomarkers and biomarker testing rates may vary by patients’ clinical characteristics, including tumor histology, stage, race, and sex.

Expert panelists are introduced and review common biomarkers in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), followed by a focused discussion on EGFR mutations.

Closing out his discussion on the management of advanced non–small cell lung cancer, an expert oncologist provides his hopes for future evolutions in the treatment paradigm.

In light of clinical data and real-world experience, Jason Porter, MD, considers how he would best select patients with non–small cell lung cancer for IO therapy.

Jason Porter, MD, shares a brief review of the toxicity profile noted on EMPOWER-Lung3 and provides practical advice on how to monitor for and manage adverse events.

Expert perspective on the EMPOWER-Lung3 clinical trial, which combined cemiplimab with chemotherapy as frontline treatment for patients with advanced NSCLC.

Comprehensive insight on the first-line treatment armamentarium available to patients diagnosed with metastatic squamous cell non–small cell lung cancer.

Centering discussion on a patient scenario of metastatic squamous cell NSCLC, expert oncologist Jason Porter, MD, shares his initial impressions on the case.
