CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

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

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Recognize the molecular heterogeneity of cholangiocarcinomas, and appreciate the biologic rationale for efforts to therapeutically exploit documented abnormalities in patients.
    • Review the recent FDA approval of pemigatinib for patients with previously treated, unresectable locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with an FGFR2 (fibroblast growth factor receptor 2) fusion or other rearrangement, and consider how this agent can be appropriately and safely integrated into clinical management algorithms.
    • Develop an understanding of available clinical trial findings with ivosidenib for patients with advanced cholangiocarcinoma and an IDH1 (isocitrate dehydrogenase 1) mutation to determine the applicability of this therapeutic strategy in current or future practice.
    • Recall available and emerging data with other agents and strategies currently in clinical testing for cholangiocarcinoma, and appropriately refer eligible patients for trial participation.
