LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Upon the completion of this program, attendees should be able to:

  • Evaluate the efficacy and safety clinical trials data from immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) and chemotherapy combination regimens in the first-line management of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
  • Apply clinical practice guidelines to patient care setting for individuals with metastatic NSCLC without actionable mutations
  • Discuss the timely recognition and management of immune related adverse events (irAEs) in patients with advanced NSCLC treated with immunotherapy
