In this activity based on a live MasterClass and Nursing Practice Forum, leading experts present concise learning modules combined with workshop-style demonstrations and case-based discussions to provide a practical framework for oncology nurses to facilitate optimal clinical integration of immunotherapies in advanced/metastatic and early-stage NSCLC, offering strategies to educate patients about this therapeutic class, mitigate acute and chronic immune-related adverse events (irAEs), and support patients through treatment and survivorship to help them achieve the best possible quality of life and outcomes. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Describe the mechanisms of action, safety and efficacy, and current and emerging roles of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and combinations in advanced- and early-stage NSCLC; Collaborate with the interprofessional team to safely and effectively integrate ICI-based regimens into individualized treatment plans for eligible patients with advanced- and early-stage NSCLC; Implement best practices for diagnosing and managing irAEs in patients with NSCLC receiving treatment with ICIs and combinations; and Provide education, guidance, and support to patients with NSCLC and their caregivers about ICI-based treatment options, importance of being vigilant about irAEs, and how to overcome challenges and optimize outcomes during treatment and survivorship
