My #1 take-away from #ALTG2018 as advocate:
Subsidy for #NGS and routine testing in #lungcancer are urgently needed in Australia.
#lcsm @Lungfoundation @RareCancers
So happy to see Bob Li, 'Aussie export' to @sloan_kettering, helping cancer patients live well for longer in a smart system fed by bioinformatics, NGS & access to a 'village of experts'.But how to do this in Australia when testing for even actionable mutations isn't standardised?

Universal endorsement from the distinguished panel that we should not be paternalistic with patients. Recommend open discussion of available diagnostic testing and treatments in lung cancer, irrespective of cost, allowing patients to make their own informed decisions. #ALTG2018
Excellent panel discussion at #ALTG2018. Recommendations from @teamdraft @chrisdraft that to raise the profile of lung cancer in Aust, we need to find our advocates & allow patient survivors to tell their success stories. Media respond to personal stories not a cancer diagnosis.
having the opportunity to interact with people like you @ProjectBreath brings so much to this conversation and work - I am sure they were as inspired by you, as you by them #ALTG #ALTG2018
Such a privilege to meet these passionate men & be inspired over the past 2 days. Keep up the great work @DrSanjayPopat, Dr Bob Li @sloan_kettering, and @chrisdraft @teamdraft!

So many highlights in last few days at #ALTG2018 @Lungfoundation meeting including hanging with @chrisdraft discussing celebrating our survivors & Bob Li from @sloan_kettering discussing #PrecisionMedicine in #LungCancer - what wonderful people #LCSM

Dr Malinda Itchins aptly addressed - before we get onto NGS, we need to get the basics right first; wide routine access to ROS, PD-L1, ALK, EGFR testing #ALTG #ALTG2018 @Lungfoundation

Excellent panel of leaders and advocates in #LungCancer in motion at #ALTG #ALTG2018. Currently answering a very valid question about making #NGS #routine testing @Lungfoundation @bensolomon1 @TommyJohn00 @perth_meso_dr @DrSanjayPopat @teamdraft @chrisdraft

Fabulous presentation by Dr Malinda Hitchins on the dynamic paradigm for frontline & post-progression management of ALK+ rearranged population. #ALTG2018

Inspirational opening by @chrisdraft at the #ALTG2018 symposium! Amazing legacy within @teamdraft So much hope and exciting new data shared by @DrSanjayPopat to further the cause! @Lungfoundation

Superb run-down from @DrSanjayPopat on individualising lung cancer immunotherapy to patients. 2019 promises to be even more exciting. But questions remain. Eg., what to do for patients of PS 2. #ALTG2018 @Lungfoundation

"Did you believe in immunotherapy BEFORE it won the Nobel Prize?" A stunning, powerfully pitched opening from @chrisdraft at #ALTG2018. Hope comes from progress. Progress comes from belief in research. And belief comes from celebrating lung cancer survivors #lcsm @Lungfoundation
