Edward B. Garon, MD, MS:
In closing, I would like to thank our panelists for a robust discussion of our HCP survey data and their expert perspectives on the management of NSCLC with EGFR mutations. We covered many interesting questions on recent progress in the molecular characterization of EGFR mutations and available treatments for patients with NSCLC harboring various EGFR alterations. We have come a long way since when I had to send patients home with stage IV NSCLC, an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0, and EGFR mutations because there were no treatments available. Now, we are subdividing lung cancer into a host of different groups based on their specific molecular drivers, and as we saw with EGFR, even looking for atypical groupings within a particular molecular driver. These are exciting and encouraging developments for our patients now, and as we introduced in the discussion of future directions, we will continue to see in the years to come.
