Bridging the Gap: Precision Medicine in Lung Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment
A multi-part forum examining the systemic delays that lung cancer patients face from diagnosis to treatment.
Moderated by Dr. Stephanie Snow
For those living with lung cancer, the promise of precision medicine cannot be fully realized unless we address both the barriers to timely and equitable biomarker testing and the delays in access to life-saving treatments. These two critical pieces must work hand-in-hand to ensure better outcomes and improved survival rates for all Canadians.
This series will focus on ‘time to patient’, presenting a structured approach to understanding and addressing the critical bottlenecks that those impacted by lung cancer encounter in the journey from diagnosis to treatment.
