Empowering patients.

No one expects to hear the words stage 4 lung cancer—especially not when you’re younger and have none of the risk factors. A diagnosis like this this can feel like the ground has disappeared beneath your feet. Suddenly, you’re being asked to make complex decisions at a time when you can barely catch your breath.

At Oncogene Cancer Research, we understand that feeling because we’re living it too. Our virtual education and empowerment series has been designed specifically for patients and caregivers navigating oncogene-driven lung cancers.

This program was created to meet you where you are — likely overwhelmed, navigating complex information, and searching for hope and connection. Whether you’re seeking to better understand your diagnosis, breakdown some of the complicated medical and research jargon, be inspired about the latest treatment breakthroughs and research, or to feel less alone. You’ll hear from people who’ve been there — patients, caregivers, clinicians, and researchers alike. Our goal is simple: to help you feel informed, empowered, and inspired.

You’ll hear what to expect. You’ll learn the questions to ask. And you’ll be reminded that you are not alone.

Whether it’s understanding your biomarker, exploring treatment options, or simply hearing how others have coped with the emotional and physical toll of living with this disease, this series is designed to give you real, actionable insight.

When patients and care partners are better informed, we can advocate for ourselves, partner effectively with our care teams, and make decisions that reflect what’s important to us.

We may not be able to take away the diagnosis. But we can give you something to hold on to: knowledge, guidance, and the voices of a community who understands.
