At last week’s lung cancer conference I went full public with my dual role as patient and expert. I spoke after Jane Perlmutter a four time survivor (middle). Both of us were introduced by Dr Shirish Gadgeel- Jane’s doctor and my friend.

We patients often wonder why each of us responds so individually to our targeted therapies. It’s heartbreaking when you see up close how not all derive the same benefit from the exact same drug w seemingly the same disease. Important to understand what factor influence this & do something about it.

Fantastic sessions at @cancergrace.bsky.social Targeted Therapies Patient Forum. Dr Puneeth Iyengar asks why do people w same EGFR #lungcancer have different responses to the same TKI? Lots of unknown factors for research to answer. Hopefully #AI & tech can help. #LCSM @mskcancercenter.bsky.social

• If you smoke, quit. Your risk of cancer starts coming down about two years. • Quitting is hard…..so try again! • Nicotine replacement (gum, patches, or vape) is better than smoking. Amazing presentation Dr. Jorge Nieva!
