Oncology for the Inquisitive Mind

4. Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer


Listen Later

Four episodes already! How time flies when you're having fun. In this episode, Josh and Michael discuss metastatic lung cancer, an area of oncology where a survival benefit of a few months generates cheers, tears and standing ovations. So what happens when studies start to improve patients' outcomes by YEARS? I don't know, but there were almost certainly minds that were thoroughly blown. Join us for this most optimistic of episodes!
