Disclosures CME Credit & Certificates

The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) complies with the Standards for Commercial SupportSM of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME). IASLC applies these Standards throughout the educational program process—from development through implementation—to ensure independence of educational activities. IASLC policies are outlined below.

In compliance with ACCME Standards, each individual in a position to control the content of an educational activity must disclose all relevant financial relationships with commercial interests. The ACCME defines “relevant” financial relationships as financial relationships in any amount occurring within the past 12 months that create a conflict of interest. Individuals who refuse to disclose relevant financial relationships are not allowed to have control of, or responsibility for, the development, management, presentation or evaluation of CME activities. All disclosures are reviewed for potential conflicts, and appropriate steps for resolution are taken when needed. Additionally, individuals must agree to comply with specific rules (attestations) to ensure content is balanced and evidence-based, does not promote the business interests of a commercial entity, and conforms to the generally accepted standard of experimental design, data collection and analysis. Presenters are also required to clearly identify any non-FDA approved uses of products. IASLC also monitors presentations for quality and compliance through direct observation (IASLC staff and CME committee members), and through member feedback on evaluation surveys.

For the IASLC 2020 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC 2020), disclosure information will be available for viewing as of January 27, 2021. Presenters are also required to include a disclosure slide listing all relevant financial relationships with commercial interests. CME related questions should be directed to IASLC at cme at iaslc.org.

Credit Statement

The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer designates this Other activity (blended live, simulive and on-demand materials) for a maximum of 66.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Goal & Purpose

The IASLC WCLC 2020 is the world’s largest international gathering of clinicians, researchers, and scientists in the field of lung cancer and thoracic oncology. Bringing together lung cancer specialists from around the world and across disciplines, the meeting offers unique opportunities for collaboration, learning and sharing the latest developments in lung cancer and thoracic malignancy research, prevention, diagnosis, treatment and management. With 18 educational tracks and over 100 global experts as invited speakers, WCLC 2020 provides a robust, comprehensive scientific program encompassing cutting edge knowledge on subjects such as tumor biomarkers, clinical trials, targeted therapies, liquid biopsy, screening, immunotherapy, tobacco control and patient advocacy even in a virtual environment. Sessions include plenaries with live Q&A, expert lectures, panel discussions, oral abstracts and posters.

Target Audience

The IASLC 2020 World Conference on Lung Cancer is designed to meet the educational needs of researchers and healthcare professionals who diagnose and treat patients with lung cancer, including medical oncologists, thoracic surgeons, pulmonologists, radiation oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, advanced practice nurses, and physician assistants.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, participants will be able to:

  1. Examine scientific advances in thoracic cancer including the pathogenesis, biology, and mechanisms of drug interactions that can be used to make evidence-based diagnosis and treatment decisions.
  2. Synthesize cutting edge research from clinical trials and translational studies conducted around the world to deepen knowledge within primary specialty area(s) and broaden knowledge of other specialties.
  3. Advocate for lung cancer prevention strategies including tobacco control, smoking cessation, reducing environmental risks, addressing the quality and value of healthcare, and implementing early screening.
  4. Apply evidence-based recommendations and clinical practice guidelines to diagnose and manage patients.
  5. Collaborate on multidisciplinary teams to improve patient outcomes through patient-centered diagnostic, therapeutic and palliative care.
