Lung Cancer Immunotherapy Breakthrough treatments for longer life As the most common cancer worldwide, lung cancer impacts approximately 2.1 million people each year. Hope for millions is on the horizon as the lung cancer death rate in the United States has dropped dramatically over the last few years with the introduction of new treatments, including immunotherapy. Immunotherapy for lung cancer, alone or in combination with conventional treatments, can significantly improve outcomes for lung cancer patients. Join medical oncologist Dr. Julie Brahmer, of Johns Hopkins Medicine, to hear about several recently approved immunotherapy options and ask your questions about how immunotherapy is advancing the treatment of lung cancer. We’ll discuss PD-L1 expression, treatment response, length of treatment, clinical trials, and more.
