Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center experts at Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington, D.C., and Suburban Hospital in Bethesda, Maryland, have vast expertise in managing all stages of lung cancers.
Novel Cancer Treatments and Research
Our lung cancer experts offer a range of treatment options, including chemotherapy and radiation, surgery, molecular targeted therapies, and immunotherapies, which stimulate the body’s natural immune system to better fight cancer. In fact, medical oncologists at Johns Hopkins led national clinical trials of anti-PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors for lung cancers that led to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s approval of the first immunotherapy treatments for lung cancers. Listen to medical oncologist Benjamin Levy discusses new treatment options for lung cancers.
Our experts devise personal treatment plans for patients that may include a combination of therapies. Patients can receive all of their care within the greater Washington region.
