The metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (mNSCLC) treatment landscape has vastly expanded over the past two decades as a result of advancements in biomarker testing. However, unmet needs remain both in terms of treatment options for some patient groups, and patient support throughout the treatment journey. In this symposium, Jarushka Naidoo, Terri Conneran, Luis Paz-Ares and Alexander Drilon focused on patient-centric approaches to mNSCLC treatment.

The panel also discussed both I-O monotherapy and combination therapy, including dual I-O therapies for patients with PD-L1 tumour expression <1%, as well as the treatment landscape for KRAS (G12C – in superscript)-mutated mNSCLC. In addition, the latest data on TKIs for patients with alterations in ROS1 and NTRK genes were discussed, focusing on next‑generation TKIs.
