  • PROMs: Role in Clinical Research and Contributions to PAH Patient Perspectives
    Host: H. James Ford, MD

    Managing patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension, or PAH, can present certain challenges. PAH is a serious, progressive condition, and its effective management involves the consideration of several factors to meet treatment goals. The utilization of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) to enhance shared decision-making can be a valuable tool to help integrate lifestyle, palliative care, and patient goals into a PAH care plan and address diverse and global needs.

  • Chairperson’s Perspective: Precision in Practice: Advancing EGFR-Altered Metastatic NSCLC Through Guideline-Concordant, Case-Based Learning
    Host: Natasha B. Leighl, MD, MMSc

    This 30-minute Chairperson’s Perspective program explores the evolving landscape of (epidermal growth factor receptor) EGFR-altered metastatic non–small cell lung cancer through guideline-concordant, evidence-based learning. Dr. Natasha Leighl reviews the clinical importance and optimal timing of molecular testing and provides evidence-based strategies for patient selection and treatment sequencing across EGFR mutation subtypes, including common mutations and exon 20 insertions. Emphasis will be placed on emerging therapies, key clinical trial data, and the integration of multidisciplinary care in managing adverse events associated with EGFR-targeted therapies.

  • Treatment of a Broader Population of Patients With DMD
    Host: Crystal Proud, MD
    Guest: Erika Finanger, MD, MS

    By completing this activity, learners will gain the skills and confidence to determine therapeutic candidacy and conduct appropriate assessments for patients with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) across the age spectrum, including older and non-ambulatory individuals. They will improve their ability to interpret and apply the latest clinical data to real-world scenarios and make informed decisions about treatment and monitoring. Through case-based education, learners will enhance their competence in aligning patients to appropriate therapies and managing long-term care in a rapidly evolving treatment landscape.

  • Stemming the Tide on MASLD/MASH: It Starts on the Frontlines in Endocrinology and Primary Care Clinics
    Guest: Meena B. Bansal, MD, FAASLD
    Guest: Nicholas Pennings, DO, DABOM, MFOMA, FACOFP, FAAFP
    Guest: Fernando Bril, MD

    The epidemic of metabolic dysfunction-associated liver disease (MASLD) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is fully upon the US healthcare system, and it's projected to get worse. The prevalence of MASLD in the US is expected to increase from 33.7% in 2020 to 41.4% in 2050, which translates to approximately 122 million adults being affected. Our broadcast on Global Fatty Liver Day provides practical and engaging discussions to help endocrinologists and primary care providers better understand the use of noninvasive tests and biomarkers for timely screening and primary risk assessment, treatment and management of cardiometabolic risk, and assignment to the appropriate level of care for patients with MASLD/MASH.
