Why are people who have never smoked excluded from routine #lungcancer screening?

New research from Singapore examines whether family history and individual risk could help identify people who might benefit.

Could screening look beyond smoking history? #LCSM

The cost of #lungcancer goes far beyond health. 💶

At #ESMO26, our President Debra Montague presented our poster showing 2 in 3 people affected by lung cancer face financial difficulties, & 82% of those struggling say money is a barrier to treatment & care.

TRIANA is on the programme at #ESMO2026 🔬

This Phase 1/2 trial in ALK+ #lungcancer tests TRI-611, a molecular glue designed to break down the ALK protein rather than block it.

Still early research, with no results yet. More at www.alkpositive.org.uk/information/...

Leaked before #ESMO26: a personalised mRNA vaccine plus pembrolizumab lowered the risk of melanoma returning, or death, by 42%.

The same vaccine is in Phase 3 trials for early-stage #lungcancer, made from each person's tumour after surgery. Lung results are still to come.

Lung Cancer Europe is in Madrid for #ESMO26. 🇪🇸

It's a big year for #lungcancer, with new trial results that could change treatment.

On Saturday, our President presents our research on the cost of lung cancer: 2 in 3 people we surveyed were struggling financially.

Climate change could be raising #lungcancer risk inside our homes. 🌡️

As rising temps drive us into sealed, air-conditioned rooms & basements, radon builds up.

Modelling from a 🆕 study suggests up to 42 extra deaths per 10,000 people in Europe by age 85.

Could hotter summers increase #lungcancer deaths?

New research warns that changes to how we cool our homes could increase exposure to radon, a radioactive gas that causes lung cancer, including in people who have never smoked.

The risk is invisible. doi.org/10.1038/s444... #LCSM
