Tumor Board: Translating HER2 and TROP2 Innovations to Transform NSCLC Care

Thanks for your interest in this podcast. Please read this important program information before listening.

Episode Description

In this podcast, experts Jacob Sands, MD; Marina Chiara Garassino, MD; and Eric Singhi, MD; use realistic cases to explore key decision points in applying HER2- and TROP2-targeted therapies across the non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) continuum, including patient selection, sequencing, and toxicity management.

Learning Objectives

Upon successful completion of this activity, you should be better prepared to:

  • Determine the clinical importance of distinguishing between HER2 mutations, amplifications, and HER2 protein overexpression in managing advanced NSCLC
  • Integrate current data supporting HER2-directed therapies to develop personalized treatment plans for patients with advanced NSCLC harboring HER2 alterations
  • Examine the role of TROP2-targeted antibody-drug conjugates in advanced NSCLC with and without targetable genomic alterations
  • Implement evidence-based strategies to prevent and manage adverse events linked to HER2- and TROP2-directed therapies in NSCLC
