WCLC 2024: We’re Counting Down!

Dear readers,

As we gear up for live coverage of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer’s World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) in San Diego, we’re reflecting on an exciting summer of developments in lung cancer.

The season started strong with the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting, which featured multiple practice-changing updates on lung cancer and inspired the trending #ASCOLung hashtag on social media.

We’re proud to share multiple historic updates from the meeting, including our interview with Suresh S. Ramalingam, MD, FACP, FASCO, who presented data from the Phase 3 LAURA trial during the plenary session and received a standing ovation.

We’re also highlighting #ASCOLung insights from Balazs Halmos, MD, and Rami Manochakian, MD, FASCO, as well as a thought-provoking expert roundtable discussion on metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that was moderated by Millie Das, MD.

See you at WCLC!

Until then,

Lung Cancers Today Editors
