LiveLung

LiveLung Education. Community. Empowerment. We do this by hosting a network of monthly educational community lung cancer patient groups.

LiveLung is on a mission to improve health outcomes by advancing lung cancer education, early detection, and compassion for people impacted by lung cancer. We provide resource bags to dozens of cancer centers where nurse navigators give them to newly diagnosed lung cancer patients. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, here to serve the lung cancer community. While we gratefully accept donati

ons, we never solicit donations from lung cancer patients or caregivers. Find out more about us at www.livelung.org.

Why Small Cell Lung Cancer Comes Back So Fast 🔬

At the 2026 LiveLung SCLC Summit, Benjamin Morris, PhD explains how frontline chemotherapy and immunotherapy can cause tumors to “melt away” on scans — yet many patients still experience recurrence due to therapy resistance.

Understanding how SCLC adapts and “flips the switch” to resist treatment could help researchers develop more effective therapies in the future. Watch now. 🤍

Tarlatamab: First DLL3 Targeted Breakthrough in SCLC 🧬

At the 2026 LiveLung SCLC Summit, Anne Chiang, MD, PhD, FASCO explains how this first-in-class DLL3-targeted bispecific antibody works by connecting T-cells directly to tumor cells to activate the immune system against cancer. She also shares results from the DeLLphi-301 trial that led to FDA accelerated approval for relapsed SCLC.

Food Tastes Wrong? Try This Instead đź’ˇ
Taste changes from targeted therapy can make food frustrating—but flavor is about more than taste alone. 🤍 Smell, texture, and temperature all play a role in how enjoyable food feels. Simple tricks like pairing hot foods with cold foods, smooth textures with crunchy ones, or adding familiar scents like cinnamon can help make meals more appealing during treatment.

Can’t Eat? Try This Game Changing Strategy Instead 🏆
Loss of appetite during treatment can make nutrition feel overwhelming. 🤍 Stephanie Meyers, MS, RD, LDN shares a simple strategy: think small and frequent. Instead of 3 large meals, try eating 5–6 small portions throughout the day using smaller plates and adding a few extra bites or snacks 30 minutes later when possible. These small changes can help you get in more calories and protein without feeling pressured to clean a full plate.
