Dr. Luis Raez - Memorial Cancer Institute, Florida, USA

Dr Luis Raez speaks to ecancer at the ASCO Direct Highlights™ Miami 2019 Symposium about immunotherapy before surgery in lung cancer.

He focusses on two presentations from ASCO 2019 which show that surgery is more effective after 90% of the tumour has been removed by immunotherapy.

Dr Raez expresses that this may change the standard of care for lung cancer.
