TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC).

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Understand validated biomarkers of response (eg, RAS mutations, microsatellite instability [MSI]/mismatch repair [MMR] deficiency, HER2 overexpression, BRAF V600E mutations, KRAS G12C mutations) found in patients with CRC, and consider the implications for molecular testing and clinical care.
• Evaluate the biological rationale for the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors in the management of MSI-high (MSI-H)/MMR-deficient (dMMR) localized and advanced CRC, and counsel patients regarding evidence-based and guideline-endorsed treatment recommendations.
• Optimize the current and future use of neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy for patients with localized and locally advanced CRC, considering the influence of various clinical and biological factors such as MSI-H/dMMR status.
• Recognize the clinical relevance of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a prognostic and predictive biomarker in CRC, and comprehend the rationale for its use in detecting molecular residual disease.
• Appreciate published datasets documenting the clinical utility of ctDNA testing in risk stratification, surveillance and treatment decision-making for patients with CRC, and consider the current and future role of this strategy in personalizing therapeutic recommendations.
• Formulate a plan to guide the selection and sequencing of therapies for patients diagnosed with metastatic CRC (mCRC) accounting for tumor sidedness, biomarker profile, prior systemic therapy, symptomatology and personal goals of treatment.
• Appreciate published research documenting the efficacy of targeted therapeutic approaches for patients with mCRC and various actionable genomic alterations in order to personalize treatment recommendations.
• Recall ongoing trials evaluating novel agents and strategies for patients with mCRC, and use this information to refer candidates for study participation.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical and radiation oncologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows, general and breast surgeons and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of breast cancer.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Appreciate the incidence and clinical implications of ESR1 mutations in endocrine-resistant metastatic breast cancer (mBC), and determine optimal strategies to effectively identify patients harboring these abnormalities.
• Understand the biological rationale for, mechanism of action of and pharmacologic similarities and differences among available and investigational oral selective estrogen receptor degraders (SERDs).
• Interrogate published research documenting the efficacy of oral SERD monotherapy for hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative, ESR1-mutated mBC progressing on standard endocrine therapy in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor in order to optimally integrate these agents into the care of appropriately selected patients.
• Review available research data evaluating serial ESR1 testing using circulating tumor DNA to inform early therapeutic switching for patients with HR-positive mBC receiving CDK4/6 inhibitor-based first-line therapy, and consider the potential role of this novel strategy.
• Evaluate available clinical trial data with oral SERDs in combination with other systemic therapies (eg, CDK4/6 inhibitors, mTOR inhibitors), and consider the potential role of these regimens.
• Recognize the frequency of PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alterations in patients with HR-positive mBC, and employ evidence-based approaches to target these aberrations for appropriate candidates with newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory disease.
• Understand the biological rationale for the development of agents targeting multiple components of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, and recognize available and emerging data employing this strategy for patients with HR-positive, PIK3CA wild-type and PIK3CA-mutant mBC.
• Appreciate side effects associated with available and investigational oral SERDs and agents targeting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, and use this information to develop supportive care plans for patients receiving these treatments.
• Assess ongoing clinical research studies evaluating novel applications of oral SERDs and PI3K/AKT/mTOR inhibitor-based approaches, and counsel patients regarding the potential benefits of trial participation.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Recognize the prognostic and clinical significance of various biomarkers (eg, del[17p], TP53 mutations, IGHV gene rearrangements) in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and refine molecular testing algorithms for patients newly diagnosed with this disease.
• Individualize the selection of systemic therapy for patients with treatment-naïve CLL, considering new research findings, biomarker profile, clinical presentation, coexisting medical conditions and other factors.
• Appraise available Phase III data documenting the comparative efficacy and tolerability of first- and second-generation Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors, and consider the implications of these findings for clinical decision-making for patients with newly diagnosed CLL, including those with high-risk features.
• Appreciate the scientific rationale for the investigation of combined Bruton tyrosine kinase and Bcl-2 inhibition, and review recently presented data documenting the safety and efficacy of this strategy for previously untreated CLL.
• Implement a plan of care to recognize and manage side effects and toxicities associated with available systemic therapies commonly employed in the management of newly diagnosed CLL.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of lung cancer.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Counsel patients with newly diagnosed metastatic EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) regarding available therapeutic considerations, explaining the relevance of mutation type, symptomatology, sites and extent of metastases, prior therapeutic exposure and other factors.
• Appreciate the biological rationale for dual inhibition of MET and EGFR for patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC, and understand recently presented data establishing the benefit of this strategy.
• Evaluate the documented efficacy of chemotherapy combined with EGFR-targeted therapy, and consider the current role of available approaches in both the front-line and relapsed/refractory settings for patients with metastatic NSCLC and EGFR mutations.
• Review published research findings with TROP2-directed antibody-drug conjugates for patients with metastatic NSCLC and EGFR mutations, and optimally incorporate these agents into treatment algorithms.
• Appraise the scientific rationale for the development of bispecific antibodies directed at PD-1 x VEGF, and reflect on the potential role of these agents in the management of EGFR-mutated NSCLC.
• Recall the biological rationale for the evaluation of various novel therapeutic approaches for patients with NSCLC and EGFR mutations.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical and gynecologic oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of endometrial cancer.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Assess the clinical and biological characteristics of the various histologic subtypes and molecular subgroups of endometrial cancer (EC), and consider the implications for prognosis, biomarker evaluation and therapeutic decision-making.
• Appreciate available clinical research findings with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies in combination with chemotherapy as first-line treatment for advanced or recurrent EC, and educate patients with microsatellite instability-high/mismatch repair (MMR)-deficient or microsatellite-stable/MMR-proficient disease about this novel strategy.
• Understand the biological rationale for and available data with PARP inhibitors in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy for patients with advanced or metastatic EC.
• Review available data with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies in combination with agents targeting the VEGF pathway, and select patients with metastatic EC to receive this novel approach.
• Recognize the biological rationale for the evaluation of trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2)-directed antibody-drug conjugates for patients with EC, and consider available research findings with and the potential role of these agents.
• Recognize adverse events associated with available and investigational therapies used in the treatment of EC to educate patients and manage complications.
• Describe the scientific justification for, published research data with and current studies of novel agents and strategies for EC, and effectively prioritize clinical trial opportunities for eligible patients.
