Karen Knudsen: The Power of Science in Shifting the Narrative for Lung Cancer

Karen Knudsen, Chief Executive Officer at Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, shared on LinkedIn:

“On World Lung Cancer Day, let’s take a minute to underscore the power of science in shifting the narrative for lung cancer (especially NSCLC).

  • Since 2013, immune and targeted therapies have helped reduce mortality dropped by more than double prior rates
  • Key trials show patients live months longer, and a growing share now survives 3–5+ years.

At the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy (PICI), we are investing in what comes next: next generation immunotherapeutics, combination strategies, and fast-tracking breakthroughs to patients. We believe that every life extended (and every life saved!) is a reminder of what is possible when science leads.”
