Side effects labeled “low grade” can still disrupt daily life, so listening directly to patients is essential to understanding how tolerable a treatment truly is. Researchers, clinicians, and advocates need to keep asking how persistent symptoms affect daily functioning, independence, and quality-of-life and then use that information to support better care decisions. In a LUNGevity-supported study, 81 of 394 participants reported persistent low-grade diarrhea and they shared their lived experiences with the “low grade” side effect. These findings reinforce the importance of patient-reported symptoms in revealing burdens that may not be apparent in clinical reporting alone. Learn more about this research here: lungevity.org/blogs/what-is-… This research was highlighted as an oral presentation at the 2026 World Conference on Lung Cancer. @BellKingKal #WCLC26

Congratulations to @GTumors on launching PCARE. People with penile cancer and their caregivers need support that is specific to their disease, especially in a rare cancer where local resources may be thin.

PCPs can help more people access lifesaving lung cancer screening. But 80% of surveyed PCPs want more education on lung cancer screening. We have heard this need and we are building education, navigation, and referral support, so that more people can be diagnosed earlier when lung cancer is most treatable. Learn more about this research: lungevity.org/blogs/do-prima… This work was presented at the 2026 World Conference on Lung Cancer. @MontefioreNYC @BrendonStilesMD @nchudgar #WCLC26
