The NCCN Guidelines® Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer are updated frequently throughout the year to include new approved agents and indications. It is difficult for clinicians to stay up-to-date on the most recent recommendations to improve outcomes for their patients with metastatic NSCLC. In addition, clinicians need to be aware of novel adverse reactions that may occur with the new targeted therapies.

This information was originally presented at the NCCN 23rd Annual Conference: Improving the Quality, Effectiveness, and Efficiency of Cancer Care held in Orlando, Florida, from March 22 - 24, 2018.

In recent years, several new systemic therapy regimens were approved by the FDA as additional neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment options for eligible patients with resectable NSCLC and included in the NCCN Guidelines for NSCLC.

For many years, platinum plus etoposide regimens had been recommended for patients with extensive stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC); however, the preferred regimens for extensive stage SCLC now include immune checkpoint inhibitors, either atezolizumab or durvalumab, plus platinum plus etoposide.
Health care providers need to know about the recent updates to the NCCN Guidelines for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer to provide the best care for their patients with NSCLC, including adverse reactions that may occur with use of the new neoadjuvant and adjuvant systemic therapy regimens.
