Essentially we’re testing the early integrated palliative care model, which is monthly visits with a specialty trained palliative care physician or advanced practice provider for patients who are diagnosed with advanced non small cell lung cancer.

And so, unfortunately, I think for a while, this condition, for many people, isn’t diagnosed until you end up seeing a cardiologist or a heart failure doctor who’s really honed in on this to say, actually, this is a heart failure syndrome.

A lot of people, and we have some data to say that you might have distress, but sex is not one of the reasons for your distress when you’re first diagnosed. So cancer.net has information on this.
