NSCLC Tumor Board Discussion: Considerations for Oligometastatic Disease

with Dr. Karen Reckamp, Dr. Scott Atay, Dr. Scott Oh, Dr. Alan Lee and Dr. Scott Genshaft

When cancer spreads to the brain, what is the best approach: immediate local treatment or systemic immunotherapy first? Part two of the 2025 NSCLC Creator Weekend™ series focuses on a complex case involving a 75-year-old woman with a history of breast malignancy, presenting with new dyspnea and a large mass in the left lower lobe.

This podcast is supported by an educational grant from Johnson & Johnson and Varian.
