The Patient Webinars: Small Cell Lung Cancer occurred in January 2022. This informational program was created in conjunction with the newly published NCCN Guidelines for Patients® for Small Cell Lung Cancer. (www.nccn.org/p...)
The NCCN Guidelines for Patients (nccn.org/patien...) are available to read and download for free online and via the NCCN Patient Guides for Cancer mobile app. Printed editions can be ordered from Amazon.com for a small fee.
NCCN Guidelines for Patients DO NOT replace the expertise and clinical judgment of the clinician.

This webinar is supported through the NCCN Foundation® and by a contribution from our corporate supporter: AstraZeneca.
