Major Disparities in Access to Molecular Tumour Boards – Lung Cancer Europe

Lung Cancer Europe shared a post on LinkedIn:

“A new consensus statement from the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) highlights major disparities in access to Molecular Tumour Boards (MTBs) – a key tool in delivering personalised lung cancer care.

Global disparities in the successful implementation of MTBs exist, driven by unequal access to molecular diagnostics and supportive multidimensional expertise.’
– IASLC, July 2025

LuCE supports IASLC’s call for:

  •  Stronger infrastructure
  •  Broader access to molecular testing
  •  Use of virtual MTBs to ensure expert input is available to all regardless of location

In Europe, too many people with lung cancer are still being left behind. Personalised care must be a reality everywhere.”
