Topics to Be Discussed

MODULE 1: Management of Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) with EGFR, ALK or ROS1 Mutation

  • Design, eligibility criteria and primary and secondary endpoints of the Phase III ADAURA trial evaluating adjuvant osimertinib versus placebo for early-stage NSCLC with EGFR mutation after complete tumor resection
  • Clinical benefit observed with adjuvant osimertinib in the ADAURA trial; implications for biomarker testing and clinical care
  • Optimal first-line treatment for patients with metastatic NSCLC with EGFR tumor mutations, including those with CNS metastases
  • Management of NSCLC in patients who experience disease progression on first-line osimertinib; novel agents and combination strategies
  • FDA approval and current clinical role of erlotinib in combination with ramucirumab for patients with previously untreated metastatic NSCLC with EGFR mutations
  • Current treatment approaches for patients with NSCLC with EGFR exon 20 insertions; available data with and current role of commercially available EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors
  • Mechanism of action of amivantamab and of mobocertinib and efficacy and safety data leading to FDA breakthrough therapy designations for these agents in the treatment of metastatic NSCLC with an EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation
  • Optimal selection of first- and later-line therapy for patients with metastatic NSCLC and an ALK rearrangement
  • FDA approval of brigatinib for patients with NSCLC and an ALK rearrangement who have not received prior treatment with an ALK inhibitor; integration into treatment algorithms
  • Efficacy, safety and current clinical role of entrectinib for NSCLC with ROS1 rearrangement
  • Clinical trial evidence supporting the ongoing evaluation of other “next-generation” ROS1 inhibitors (eg, lorlatinib, ceritinib) for patients with NSCLC

MODULE 2: Targeted Therapeutic Options for Patients with NSCLC Harboring Other Mutations

  • Available safety and efficacy results from the LIBRETTO-001 trial of selpercatinib for patients with RET fusion-driven NSCLC, including those with previously untreated disease
  • Recent FDA approval of selpercatinib for patients with metastatic NSCLC with a RET fusion; optimal integration into clinical practice
  • Clinical activity and safety of pralsetinib in patients with advanced NSCLC and RET fusions in the Phase I/II ARROW study
  • FDA breakthrough therapy designation for pralsetinib and potential clinical role
  • Design, eligibility criteria and key findings from the Phase II GEOMETRY mono-1 trial assessing capmatinib in patients with NSCLC with MET exon 14 mutations
  • Recent FDA approval and current clinical role of capmatinib
  • Available safety and efficacy data with tepotinib in patients with NSCLC with MET exon 14 mutations
  • Key findings from the Phase II DESTINY-Lung01 study evaluating trastuzumab deruxtecan for NSCLC with HER2 mutation
  • FDA breakthrough therapy designation for trastuzumab deruxtecan and potential nonresearch role for patients with NSCLC and HER2 mutations
  • Early safety and efficacy data with and ongoing evaluation of the novel KRAS G12C inhibitor AMG 510 for NSCLC with KRAS mutation
  • Available clinical trial data with and optimal use of entrectinib and larotrectinib for patients with NSCLC harboring NTRK gene fusions  

Target Audience
This program is intended for medical oncologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other allied healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of lung cancer.

Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to

  • Consider emerging research information and available guideline recommendations to individualize first- and later-line therapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring various targetable genetic abnormalities.
  • Recognize the spectrum of oncogenic alterations identifiable in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase domain, and determine how these alterations might predict response or lack thereof to EGFR-directed therapies.
  • Appreciate recently presented Phase III research supporting the efficacy of adjuvant osimertinib for patients with NSCLC with EGFR mutations after complete resection, and consider the potential effects of this information on clinical practice.
  • Understand the design and eligibility criteria for ongoing clinical trials evaluating novel therapeutic approaches for NSCLC with an EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation, and enroll or refer appropriate patients for study participation.
  • Communicate the efficacy and safety of approved and investigational ALK inhibitors to appropriate patients with NSCLC.
  • Convey the clinical relevance of a positive ROS1 mutation test result to appropriate patients with NSCLC, and appreciate available clinical research with approved and investigational agents demonstrating efficacy in such cases.
  • Assess available research with approved and emerging RET inhibitors, and use this information to guide clinical care and protocol opportunities for patients with newly diagnosed or progressive NSCLC harboring one of these abnormalities.
  • Evaluate available clinical trial findings supporting the FDA approval of capmatinib for patients with metastatic NSCLC whose tumors have a mutation that leads to MET exon 14 skipping, and identify individuals who might benefit from treatment with this novel compound.
  • Recall other oncogenic pathways (eg, HER2, NTRK, KRAS) mediating the growth of tumors in unique patient subsets, and consider published and emerging data with commercially available and experimental agents exploiting these targets.

CME Credit Form
CME and ABIM MOC credit form links will be emailed to each participant within 5 business days of the activity.

Accreditation Statement
