Our latest podcast explores the case for IO in early-stage NSCLC in our once in a lifetime world – the current Australian context. We review the medical oncology and surgical perspective of the current evidence for clinical benefit and what we have available in Australia. As clinicians, we are trained to give our best treatment up front, so patient discussion is important in an environment where we can only prescribe IO therapy once during the patient’s lung cancer disease.
