• Incorporate individual preferences, tumor biomarkers and other treatment-related factors in personalizing therapy for patients with cancer.
• Educate patients with hematologic cancers or solid tumors about the benefits and risks of novel therapeutic agents and strategies.
• Apply an awareness of new datasets and the perspectives of tumor-specific clinical investigators to refine or validate treatment algorithms.
• Evaluate the mechanisms of action, tolerability and efficacy of promising investigational agents, and consider the implications for clinical practice.

Faculty

TARGET AUDIENCE
This program is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows, surgeons and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of gastroesophageal cancers.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Describe published research data with immune checkpoint inhibitors alone or in combination with other systemic therapies in the management of metastatic gastric, gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) and esophageal cancers, and optimally integrate these strategies into nonresearch treatment algorithms.
• Assess available data with monoclonal antibody therapy directed at claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2) in combination with chemotherapy as first-line treatment for patients with HER2-negative, CLDN18.2-positive gastric or GEJ cancer, and optimally incorporate this approach into management algorithms.
• Review published and emerging research findings with HER2-targeted therapies for patients with HER2-positive gastroesophageal cancers, and assess the current and future role of various agents and regimens.
• Evaluate the scientific justification for the dual targeting of PD-1 and TIGIT for patients with gastroesophageal cancers, and appreciate available data with this novel approach.
• Appreciate the rationale for, available data with and ongoing research studies evaluating novel targeted and immunotherapeutic strategies for gastroesophageal cancers to enhance clinical trial participation for appropriately identified patients.

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

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Describe published research data with immune checkpoint inhibitors alone or in combination with other systemic therapies in the management of metastatic gastric, gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) and esophageal cancers, and optimally integrate these strategies into nonresearch treatment algorithms.
• Assess available data with monoclonal antibody therapy directed at claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2) in combination with chemotherapy as first-line treatment for HER2-negative, CLDN18.2-positive gastric or GEJ cancer, and optimally incorporate this approach into management algorithms.
• Review published and emerging research findings with HER2-targeted therapies for patients with HER2-positive gastroesophageal cancers, and assess the current and future role of various agents and regimens.
• Appreciate the rationale for, available data with and ongoing research studies evaluating novel targeted and immunotherapeutic strategies for gastroesophageal cancers to enhance clinical trial participation for appropriately identified patients.

• Describe published research data with immune checkpoint inhibitors alone or in combination with other systemic therapies in the management of metastatic gastric, gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) and esophageal cancers, and optimally integrate these strategies into current treatment algorithms.
• Assess available data with approved and investigational Claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2) monoclonal antibody therapy-based combination approaches as first-line treatment for HER2-negative, CLDN18.2-positive gastric or GEJ cancer, and consider this information for current patient care.
• Review published and emerging research findings with novel HER2-targeted therapeutic approaches for HER2-positive gastroesophageal cancers, and assess their nonresearch role in patient care.
• Evaluate available treatment strategies for patients with gastric cancer and multiple biomarkers, such as HER2, PD-L1and CLDN18.2, and assess for optimal sequencing of available targeted therapies.
• Recall strategies commonly employed to mitigate and manage gastrointestinal side effects of CLDN18.2 monoclonal antibody-targeted therapy, and use this information to appropriately intervene when these side effects are suspected or diagnosed.
