Our MET Community

The MET Crusaders Facebook Group is a place where patients and caregivers can have personal dialogue. It is the hub of our community. Our Facebook Group is limited exclusively to patients and caregivers. You can freely ask and answer questions. As new developments in research or treatments are available, they are posted to our community. Virtually all data is the latest scientific data from current symposiums. If while reading any materials, you don’t understand the information, please ask.

Navigating Your Healthcare Options

When you are told you have lung cancer, most people are in a state of shock. You don’t know which way to turn. Your doctor is your primary source of medical and treatment information. However, you want to talk with other MET patients just like you. We help facilitate that conversation.

What is a MET alteration? What are the treatment options? What drugs are approved? Are there any relevant clinical trials? Where are comprehensive cancer centers? Are there specific doctors who specialize in the MET alteration for a second opinion? The list of questions is endless. Many of the answers to these questions can be found on this web site. If we don’t know the answer, we have a team of medical experts we can ask.

Advocating for New Screening, Testing and Treatment Options

MET Crusaders advocates both independently and with other like-minded organizations in the funding of lung cancer research. Tomorrow’s screening, testing and treatments begin with today’s research.

We represent our communities’ needs to doctors, researcher, government and pharmaceutical companies. This advocacy aids in developing the cutting edge therapies which will benefit current and future patients with the MET alteration.

About MET Crusaders

Collaborating with Others

Finding a cure for lung cancer is a huge task. It takes an army of like-minded individuals. MET Crusaders directly advocates for all our members. However, some tasks are so large we need to work with larger national lung cancer advocacy groups who have the scale to accomplish the big tasks. For these large tasks, we work with these national organizations as part of a larger lung cancer advocacy team.
