Despite lung cancer being the leading cause of cancer mortality, its survival rate has continued to increase over the past 5 years. However, chasms in early diagnosis, treatment options and access, survival rate, and more remain for racial and ethnic underserved populations. A culmination of biases, disparities, and inequities continues a cycle of inadequate oncological treatment for lung cancer, thus resulting in delayed diagnosis and suboptimal clinical management, prognosis, and survival rate.
In this CME Outfitters BriefCase, a faculty expert will guide learners through a patient case scenario reflecting the impact of biases, disparities, and health inequities that reduce the quality of oncology care for racial and ethnic underserved patients with lung cancer. This program will provide actionable strategies, empowering attendees to recognize factors and implement changes in practice to improve lung cancer treatment.
