LCNM PARTNERS NCSM AND PFIZER TO IMPROVE HEALTH LITERACY ON LUNG CANCER
Friday 22/10/2021
Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers in Malaysia and nearly 95% of lung cancer patients are diagnosed with stage III or IV disease. However, despite the high incidences, lung cancer awareness remains limited in Malaysia, which contributes to the late-stage presentation in a majority of cases.
In conjunction with Lung Cancer Awareness Month in November, the Lung Cancer Network Malaysia (LCNM), and the National Cancer Society Malaysia (NCSM), supported by Pfizer, would like to invite you to join our virtual event, where we will:
- Launch Malaysia’s FIRST-ever digital lung cancer patient guide to empower, educate, and inform all touched by lung cancer so that they can be more in control of their journey.
- Unveil key findings from a survey on lung cancer, with data and statistics on Malaysian’s understanding about the disease, their behavioural patterns related to healthcare and medical choices.
- Forum discussion with panel of experts from LCNM & NCSM on some of the most common myths and misconceptions about lung cancer in Malaysia based on the survey findings.
Separately at the event (Part 2), Pfizer will also be launching its FIRST patient assistance programme to support anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients’ treatment continuity. We will be showcasing an inspiring lung cancer patient’s story and how he navigates through the financial impact and questions after the diagnosis.
Details of the virtual event as below:
