Where are we going? Locally-advanced unresectable NSCLC Chemo-radiotherapy IOs? EGFR-mutated advanced NSCLC First-line 3rd generation EGFR TKIs? ALK-rearranged advanced NSCLC First-line Alectinib (or other new generation agent)? Pre-treated Malignant Mesothelioma Any room for Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors?
Open issues Locally-advanced unresectable NSCLC Chemo -radiotherapy IOs Waiting for OS results… EGFR-mutated advanced NSCLC 3rd generation TKIs Is early always better? ALK-rearranged advanced NSCLC Alectinib (or other new generation agent)? Pretreated Malignant Mesothelioma Interesting DCR Checkpoint inhibitors?
