Biomarker Testing Strategies for Lung LCNEC
Author(s)Martin Dietrich, MD, PhD, Soo-Ryum Yang, MD
Panelists discuss how biomarker testing for lung large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) is approached, covering the frequency and types of tests used, such as NGS, the timing of DLL3 testing, and the factors influencing the choice between fine needle aspirate and other biopsy techniques.
