Roles and Responsibilities
The American Society for Radiation Oncology ("ASTRO") appreciates your willingness to participate as a faculty presenter in the Continuum of Care: Non-surgical stage III NSCLC . In consideration for the opportunity to participate in this webinar series, you (“Volunteer”) agree to the following terms. The expectations for presentations listed below are provided to guide faculty and presenters as they develop the educational content of their presentation. Each of the points below must be adhered to in order to gain approval from ASTRO for presentation in a program.
Expectations for Presentations
Presentations must be objective and free of commercial bias for or against any product or device. Slides and/or reference materials shall not, by their content or format, advance the specific proprietary interests of a commercial entity. All clinical recommendations must be based on evidence that is accepted within the profession as adequate justification for their indications and contraindications in the care of patients. All scientific research referred to, reported or used to support or justify a patient care recommendation must conform to the generally accepted standards of experimental design, data collection and analysis. Presentations must give a balanced view of therapeutic options. Use of generic names will contribute to this impartiality. If trade names are used, those of several companies should be used rather than only that of a single supporting company. Presentations must offer a balanced view of current medical practice that includes discussion of all available therapeutic products, including benefits and risks associated with each. Presentation materials must not include any commercial logos. Presentation materials must be HIPAA compliant (e.g. will only use de-identified patient information and/or will obtain written consent from the patient). Presentations must include the most recent data on subject matter. When relevant, presentations should emphasize safety and quality. Note: Faculty and abstract presenter members may be required to submit slides to ASTRO for review and approval prior to presentation.
