Beautiful words from our friend and ALK Positive Australia Dep Chair Lisa Briggs in OncoDaily today. oncodaily.com/voices/lisa-...
The TRIANA TRI-611 human trials began last week! It is a new class of drug to treat ALK+ lung cancer, not a next gen TKI. Preclinical lab & animal studies have shown excellent results. One to watch. Go Research! trianabio.com/press-releas...
Thank you for raising awareness at such a difficuly time Mel. Our community is so grateful.

Can we find a way to manage drug resistance & progression in ALK+ lung cancer? Here is a link to Dr. Dane's presentation on his research into this very question. It is science-heavy, but do stick with it as the information within is truly exciting for our community. youtu.be/Z5fg4akM1eo?...
Why does resistance develop in ALK+ lung cancer, and how might it be prevented?
Please join our webinar with Dr Vassiliadis, recipient of the 2026 ALK+ Inspirational Research Grant. This research goes directly to the question at the core of our community.

This Lung Cancer Awareness Month, Bec & Chris Henry are pedalling 620km over 5 days, visiting every PET scan centre in WA.
Their goal? To raise $10,000 for lung cancer research and treatment.
Together, we can change the future of lung cancer care.

We could not be more thrilled with these announcements today - empowering researchers with the resources they need to make a real difference to our community. Bravo to all involved!
Identifying ALK+ resistance pathways is at the very core of what is important to us all. That makes the announcement of Dr Vassiliadis as the recipient of the ALK Positive Australia/TOGA Inspirational Grant for 2026 so thrilling.
Every $ donated to ALK Positive Australia goes towards research.
An excellent presentation for those of you interested in the science behind this disease & the way we move forward with treatment. A must watch, and delivered in a very approachable way. Thanks you Ms Chen and@alkpositiveuk.bsky.social @florianmerkle.bsky.social

November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month, a time to elevate patient voices. Please consider sharing your story. alkpositive.org.au/2025/11/05/l...
#Lungcancer can affect anyone - even if it’s the last thing you’d expect. It doesn’t care about age, history or lifestyle.
Symptoms aren’t always obvious they can be subtle & not always respiratory related.
Don’t ignore signs that persist. Finding it early increases your options. #LCSM

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in Australia but receives less than 6% of the research funding. 35% of women & 15% of men diagnosed with lung cancer have never smoked. Help us drive research this November: alkpositive.org.au/donate/
