The Australasian Lung Cancer Trials Group (ALTG) welcomes you to the 3rd Symposium in Lung Cancer on the 6th October 2018. For those who have not yet attended an ALTG Symposium, we are sure that this meeting will prove to be a productive and rewarding experience in further understanding the evolution of lung cancer treatment through the latest technology and applications of evidence based research.

We are fortunate to welcome two renowned international speakers; Dr Sanjay Popat, a Consultant Thoracic Medical Oncologist from The Royal

Marsden in London, Honorary Clinical Senior Lecturer in the Molecular Genetics and Genomics Group at the National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College London and current Chair of the British Thoracic Oncology Group (BTOG); Dr Bob Li, a Medical Oncologist from the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City specialising in the molecular profile of patients’ tumours and leads the clinical research program targeting the HER2 gene in lung cancers; and Mr Chris Draft, Founder, President and CEO of The Chris Draft Family Foundation in Atlanta, Georgia. The Foundation focuses on eight

Sue McCulloughConsumer Advisory Committee (CAC) member Sue McCullough has been a voice for cancer patients and their families for nearly 15 years. After being

diagnosed with lung cancer in 2003, Sue saw first-hand that there was a lack of support services for lung cancer patients within the health care system. Instead, she said, clinicians were focused solely on getting patients to stop smoking.

He has been awarded nationally and internationally competitive prizes for his research, in addition to 4 research fellowships.

He is an internationally recognized expert in the treatment of lung cancer, mesothelioma and thymoma. His research interests include identification and validation of biomarkers that influence thoracic tumour development and treatment, as well as the development of novel therapeutic strategies for the treatment of thoracic tumours through clinical trials.

He Chairs the British Thoracic Oncology Group (BTOG), and is immediate past Chair of the Advanced Diseases Sub-group of the UK NCRI Lung Cancer Clinical Studies Group. He has been elected onto the Foundation Council of the European Thoracic Oncology Platform (ETOP), and is active in the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Lung Group- where he leads the EORTC 08114 (GEM) and 08112 (NEMO) studies- and the International Thymic Malignancy Interest Group (ITMIG).

As principle investigator and physician-scientist of the Early Phase Drug Development Program at MSK, Bob leads numerous phase I and II basket trials of new cancer medicines targeting HER2 and the MAPK pathways. His translational research in the HER2 oncogene has led to the completion of the first positive clinical trial in patients with HER2-mutant lung cancers, which has already changed the 2018 NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines for non-small cell lung cancer. Bob also leads the MSK Thoracic Liquid Biopsy Program investigating the use of plasma circulating tumor DNA analysis as a non-invasive technology to capture genomic evolution of lung cancers and optimize precision therapy. Bob has received awards from the American Society of Clinical Oncology and the American Association for Cancer Research for his research, and has numerous scientific publications in prestigious journals such as Nature, Nature Medicine, Cancer Discovery, and Journal of Clinical Oncology.

As an Australian oncologist practicing in the United States, Bob is particularly keen on establishing and building an international collaboration between MSK and ALTG to advance the science toward conquering lung cancers.
