ASCO 2024 | What is the role of radiotherapy in treating NSCLC with brain metastases?

Minesh Mehta, MD, Miami Cancer Institute, Miami, FL, comments on how radiation therapy should be the standard of care in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and brain metastases. For a vast majority of patients, radiation therapy will benefit them. However, patients with ALK mutations can forego radiotherapy and receive systemic therapy. This interview took place during the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Meeting in Chicago, IL.
