CE Disclosures and Faculty Information

• TARGET AUDIENCE
  This program is intended for medical oncologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other allied healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of gastroesophageal cancers.
  
  LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Use HER2 status, PD-L1 combined positive score, clinical factors and patient preferences to personalize the selection of first-line therapy for locally advanced or metastatic gastric, gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) and esophageal cancer.
  • Describe the published research data with approved and investigational anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies alone or in combination with other systemic therapies in the management of gastric, GEJ and esophageal cancers, and consider the current and future placement of these strategies in treatment algorithms.
  • Optimally incorporate available therapeutic agents and regimens into the care of patients with HER2-negative metastatic gastric, GEJ or esophageal cancer who have experienced disease progression on front-line chemotherapy or chemoimmunotherapy.
  • Appraise clinical trial findings supporting the use of adjuvant anti-PD-1 antibody therapy for patients with resected esophageal/GEJ cancer who have received neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy and have residual pathologic disease, and discern the clinical applicability of this treatment strategy.
  • Recall available data with novel HER2-targeted agents and strategies for patients with newly diagnosed or previously treated HER2-overexpressing gastric or GEJ cancer, and identify candidates who may be appropriate for these approaches.
  • Recognize common and rare side effects associated with approved and investigational agents used in the care of patients with gastroesophageal cancers, and apply this information to develop appropriate and effective supportive management plans.
  • Review the rationale for, available data with and ongoing research evaluating novel agents and strategies for gastroesophageal cancers, and effectively prioritize clinical trial opportunities for eligible patients.
