Hello @trudyhs, I have a different mutation, ALK. Were you recently diagnosed? Have you started any treatment yet? Possibly a targeted therapy, capmatinib or tepotinib?

@dedehans, is this the same mutation that you have?

Hello,
I was diagnosed March 2020. Had a VATS lobectomy of UL to remove 5.2cm nodule, followed by 4 rounds of chemo due to the size. We've been watching several nodules in right lung since then and decided to move forward with RATS segmentectomy upper and lower right, which took place March 2024. Final decisions on treatment, if any, have not been made yet although oncologist suggested chemo followed by immunotherapy. I have a few questions for him before I will feel comfortable with that plan. So, it's a work in progress!
