Navigating Complex Mutations: Roberta's NSCLC Treatment Journey

Complex resistance mutations that reduce immunotherapy effectiveness, limiting treatment options. We explained how her mutations influence treatment resistance and identified strategies including dual checkpoint inhibitors and mutation-specific trials. We also provided evidence for dose adjustments to discuss with her doctor to manage side effects while maintaining efficacy.

The Challenge
