Research Cures Lung Cancer

Research is how progress happens, and clinical trials are at the heart of that progress.

Lung cancer research saves lives: David’s story

A lung cancer diagnosis now comes with hope, thanks to decades of important research. Learn how participating in a study helped save Dr. David Heilbronner’s life (and at least 100,000 more), and how research, advocacy, and working together are helping us achieve our goal to #EndLungCancerNow.

Coming soon: Trial Talks: How to Have Real, Impactful Conversations with Patients about Clinical Trials

This educational video series is designed for medical students, residents, fellows, and early-career physicians. Across five episodes, real oncologists and ELCN advocates model effective ways to discuss clinical trials with patients.  Each episode features a real story from someone affected by lung cancer, helping humanize what clinical trials truly mean.

I’ve cared for a lot of patients in clinical trials, and the people who have been willing to participate have paved the way for these therapies to move into a lot of different settings.
