Dr. Lyudmila Bazhenova joins the podcast to share the update to the living guideline on stage IV NSCLC without driver alterations.

She shares how these results impacted the clinical practice guideline, what they mean for patients receiving immunotherapy and chemotherapy, and where the panel is waiting for additional evidence to clarify the role of therapeutic options. Dr. Bazhenova encourages listeners to stay tuned for future updates to the living guideline after publication of data from the 2026 ASCO Annual Meeting.
