Why This Webinar Matters
Leptomeningeal metastases (LM) are a serious and often underdiagnosed complication of advanced cancers, including lung cancer. While the exact rates are difficult to quantify, research indicates:
-
9–25% of advanced small cell and non-small cell lung cancer (SCLC and NSCLC) cases may develop leptomeningeal spread.
-
That means anywhere from 1 in 11 to as many as 1 in 4 patients with advanced lung cancer may face this complication.
For patients and oncologists, early recognition is critical:
-
Know the symptoms of LM
-
Understand the right diagnostic tests to request
-
Explore treatment options and clinical trials that may be available
What You’ll Learn
During this live webinar, attendees will gain insights from leading experts into:
-
Current understanding of LM in lung cancer
-
Symptoms and diagnostic challenges
-
Evolving treatment options and clinical research opportunities
-
Practical advice for patients, caregivers, and oncologists
This interactive session also provides the opportunity to ask questions directly to the experts.
