CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

• TARGET AUDIENCE
  This program is intended for medical and radiation oncologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows, urologists and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma.
  
  LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Evaluate recently presented data with adjuvant anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody therapy for patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) at high risk for recurrence after nephrectomy, and consider the current role of this treatment strategy.
  • Appraise available clinical trial data evaluating anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies in combination with anti-CTLA-4 antibodies or multikinase inhibitors for previously untreated metastatic RCC, and counsel patients regarding the risks and benefits of these novel regimens.
  • Understand the biological rationale for exploiting hypoxia-inducible factor 2 alpha (HIF-2α) in patients with von Hippel-Lindau-associated and sporadic RCC, and consider the current role of available inhibitors.
  • Develop a rational therapeutic approach to the sequencing of systemic therapies for patients with advanced RCC that progresses on first-line treatment, incorporating multikinase inhibitors, HIF-2α inhibitors, immunotherapeutic agents and other therapeutic approaches.
  • Appreciate published research findings evaluating available and investigational agents for patients with non-clear cell RCC, and consider the applicability of these strategies in current clinical care.
  • Recall available and emerging data with other novel and investigational agents and strategies currently in testing for RCC, and, where applicable, refer eligible patients for clinical trial participation.
