Lung Cancer Immunotherapy with Dr. Leena Gandhi
Dr. Leena Gandhi leads a discussion on the latest immunotherapy for lung cancer patients. #CRIsummit #immunotherapy #LungCancer
https://www.cancerresearch.org/virtualsummit
In this video, Dr. Gandhi addresses:
- Different forms of lung cancer and different stages of disease
- PD-1 or PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitors
- Cancer immunotherapy clinical trials
- Combination therapies, such as surgery + immunotherapy or radiation + immunotherapy
- Cancer biomarkers, such as PD-L1 or TMB-H
- Treatment regimen decisions, such as length of treatment
- Partial vs complete response to treatment
- Cancer immunotherapy side effects
- Flu vaccine and cancer immunotherapy
- Lung cancer care during COVID-19
- Advice for those newly diagnosed with lung cancer
As the most common cancer worldwide, lung cancer impacts approximately 2.1 million people each year. Hope for millions is on the horizon as the lung cancer death rate in the United States has dropped dramatically over the last few years with the introduction of new treatments, including immunotherapy. Immunotherapy for lung cancer, alone or in combination with conventional treatments, can significantly improve outcomes for lung cancer patients. https://www.cancerresearch.org/immunotherapy/cancer-types/lung-cancer
Dr. Leena Gandhi is the director of the Center for Cancer Therapeutic Innovation at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. She was previously the director of Thoracic Medical Oncology at NYU and the head of Immuno-Oncology Development at Eli Lilly. She was a lead investigator on a pivotal phase 1 clinical trial that showed the usefulness of using PD-L1 as a biomarker for patients receiving anti-PD-L1 checkpoint immunotherapy as well as the lead investigator of a pivotal phase 3 study showing the survival benefit of adding pembrolizumab (Keytruda®) to chemotherapy in the initial treatment of metastatic lung cancer. She continues to work on evaluations of potential biomarkers that can better extend and refine the use of immunotherapies and combination therapies to maximize benefit for the most patients.
