UNIVERSITY OF TORINO DEPARTMENT OF ONCOLOGY In 2017, second line therapy is no longer as simple We must now take into consideration: 1.Tumor histology 2.Molecular phenotype (EGFR, ALK, ROS1, etc), Cappuzzo 3.Frontline chemo components (i.e. bevacizumab) 4.Maintenance therapy (continuation, switch) 5. IO in First Line 6.Others (adequacy of tumor tissue, third party reimbursement, guidelines, pathways, etc)
