  • HER2 Testing: The Evolving Role of Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
    Guest: Fernando López-Ríos, MD, PhD
    Guest: Christian Rolfo, MD, PhD
    Guest: Charlie Gourley, MD, PhD

    In this on-demand replay of a recent interactive webinar, renowned experts Prof. Fernando López-Ríos, Prof. Christian Rolfo, and Prof. Charlie Gourley review the latest data, guidelines, and patient cases as they explore best practices for HER2 testing and the evolving role of IHC in lung and ovarian cancers.

    Topics of conversation include the following:

    • An overview of challenges related to HER2 immunohistochemistry, guidance, and interpretation of the results
    • Targeting HER2 in lung cancer: where does IHC testing fit in?
    • Ovarian cancer: challenges and considerations for HER2 IHC testing

    Watch the on-demand video to gain expert insights on optimising IHC HER2 testing and interpreting results in lung and ovarian cancer.

  • Chemotherapy Strategies for Metastatic PDAC
    Guest: Efrat Dotan, MD
    Guest: Shubham Pant, MD, MBBS

    Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, otherwise known as PDAC, is a lethal disease which is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage and has an extremely poor prognosis. Advancements in treatment regimens have improved survival rates, but early diagnosis is crucial for improving outcomes and awareness of risk factors is vital for early diagnosis. Cytotoxic chemotherapy is the cornerstone of treatment for advanced or metastatic cases, although molecularly targeted therapies and immunotherapies may benefit select patients. Treatment selection depends on several factors, including patients' performance status and co-morbidities and these should be considered alongside the efficacy and safety profiles of the different chemotherapy regimens.

    This 2-part microlearning provides an overview of the risk factors, diagnostic tools and treatment options available to date for different patient groups.

  • Clinical evidence driving guideline recommendations for frontline immunotherapy-based combination regimens in metastatic urothelial cancer
    Host: Ignacio Duran, MD
    Host: Wenxin Xu, MD

    This online CME activity, presented in collaboration with the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN®), focuses on translating oncology clinical practice guidelines into practical strategies for treating genitourinary malignancies. Participants will learn how to integrate clinical trial data into guideline-concordant first- and subsequent-line treatment plans for patients with metastatic urothelial cancer (UC), metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), and metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The program highlights the importance of evidence-based approaches and the use of immunotherapy and targeted therapies for advanced genitourinary malignancies. Attendees will also explore emerging data that could influence future treatment guidelines, patient case examples, and insights from international faculty to develop region-specific therapeutic strategies aligned with NCCN recommendations.
