The previous two seminars of the Thoracic Oncology Assembly were on targeted therapy (2015) [1] and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI, 2017) [2]. During this seminar, breakout sessions on difficult situations were organised. One of the most original and useful was on the current challenges in brain metastases (BM) management, that we propose to share with European Respiratory Journal readers.Brain metastases remain a major problem in NSCLC. Major improvements in systemic therapies have been observed during the past decade but their impact on brain metastases control as well as their combination with radiation techniques needs further research. http://bit.ly/2Jn4v5a ER -
