Join us on Tuesday, October 15^th for this CME/MOC-accredited webinar
5:00 PM – 6:00 PM ET

This activity is supported by educational grants from Astellas, AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals LP, Bristol Myers Squibb, Daiichi Sankyo Inc, Exelixis Inc, Incyte Corporation, and Natera Inc.

Target Audience
This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows, surgeons and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of gastrointestinal cancers.

Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to

• Evaluate recently presented clinical research findings to determine their effect on the current care of patients with localized or metastatic gastrointestinal cancers.
• Optimize adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with localized colorectal cancer (CRC), considering the influence of various clinical and biological factors such as age, performance status and stage.
• Develop a long-term care plan for patients diagnosed with metastatic CRC, considering biomarker profile, tumor location, prior systemic therapy, symptomatology and personal goals of treatment.
• Use HER2 status, PD-L1 combined positive score, claudin 18.2 expression and other clinical and biological factors to optimize the selection and sequencing of systemic therapy for patients with gastric, gastroesophageal junction and esophageal cancers.
• Consider age, performance status, degree of liver function and other clinical factors in the selection of first- and later-line therapy for patients with unresectable or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma.
• Evaluate available data documenting the efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody therapy in combination with chemotherapy as first-line treatment for advanced biliary tract cancers (BTCs), and consider the role of this therapeutic strategy.
• Recognize the molecular heterogeneity of cholangiocarcinoma and other BTCs, and appreciate the biological rationale for efforts to exploit documented abnormalities in patients with these diseases.
• Recall clinical trial data with approved and investigational systemic interventions for patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma, and establish an evidence-based approach to treatment selection for this disease.
• Appraise available and emerging data with investigational agents and strategies currently in testing for gastrointestinal cancers, and as applicable, refer eligible patients for clinical trial participation.
