Thrilled to see our @MontefioreNYC @EinsteinMed teams' efforts at early detection for lung cancer highlighted in the Cancer Letter! Still lots more work to do!

Early detection changes the patient journey for patients w/ cancer and enables cures and improved quality of life!

[Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD]

Great feature from @STS_CTsurgery on work that will be presented by our outstanding @MontefioreNYC @EinsteinMed resident @GraceHaMD at STS Annual Meeting 2026!

Is all cN3 stage III NSCLC really "unresectable"?

Why not give our best systemic therapy first, no matter the local treatment modality?

I appreciate the opportunity to co-author this article https://t.co/4T9JzLScxL

The article emphasizes the profound impact of a #lungcancer diagnosis, highlighting the multifaceted challenges patients & families face (medical, psychosocial, social & financial burdens). It advocates for a holistic approach to lung cancer care beyond clinical treatment.

These are the critical discussions that shape the future of cancer care. We’ve come a long way, but there’s so much more to do — Let’s transform the “one-way ticket” into an experience filled with hope, support, and compassionate care.

FDA approves Novocure’s treatment for metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (mNSCLC) for use concurrently with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors or docetaxel in adult patients with mNSCLC who progressed on or after a platinum-based regimen: https://t.co/DFfF21cOtq

Nice talk from a great surgical resident, Shanique Ries, on surgery to remove the primary tumor in patients with oligometastatic NSCLC.

Can surgery reduce immune suppressive microenvironment and remove drug tolerant persistent cells? Does extent of surgery matter? #ITSOS2024

Sugarbaker trimodality saved hubby’s life

[Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD]

Great start to Saturday at #ITSOS2024 @AATSHQ with Walter Weder giving the Sugarbaker lecture. A good reminder that all physicians need to “stand their ground” & keep pushing for advances across all of our fields. We can’t just accept that trials from the past define the future!

Great conversation about what is an increasingly important topic.

How do we export best practices to the community setting to ensure optimal care for all patients with early stage lung cancer?

This is important. Regarding pneumonectomy: who, where, and why? Should surgeons do this operation in the context of modern multidisciplinary care?

[Laura Book @LauraJBook]

Important! Lung cancer patients and family, please consider advocating. The lung cancer community desperately needs you!
