Second-line Chemotherapy Options in Metastatic PDAC
4/11/2025
Guest: Efrat Dotan, MD
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, also known as PDAC, is a lethal disease that is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage with an extremely poor prognosis. Advancements in treatment regimens have improved survival rates, but early diagnosis is crucial for improving outcomes, and awareness of risk factors is vital for early diagnosis. Cytotoxic chemotherapy is the cornerstone of treatment for advanced or metastatic cases, although molecularly targeted therapies and immunotherapies may benefit select patients. Treatment selection depends on several factors, including patients' performance status and comorbidities, which should be considered alongside the efficacy and safety profiles of the different chemotherapy regimens.
This two-part microlearning provides an overview of the different first- and second-line chemotherapy options.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Systemic Mastocytosis With an Associated Hematologic Neoplasm
2/28/2025
Host: Nathan A. Boggs, MD
Host: Tracy George, MD
Host: Lindsay Rein, MD
The identification of KIT D816V mutation as a key driver for the expansion and accumulation of neoplastic mast cells in systemic mastocytosis (SM) has significantly improved the diagnosis, subclassification, and management of SM. Moreover, the advent of novel targeted therapies has dramatically changed the treatment landscape. However, challenges persist for community clinicians due to the low prevalence of SM and its vague and wide spectrum of clinical features. Expanded knowledge of the recommended pathology and laboratory evaluation for the diagnosis and subclassification of the disease is needed to shorten delays in diagnosis and delivery of optimal care. Tune in and find out more about the management of SM and the latest clinical evidence and guideline recommendations for the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and learn about the role played by pathologists in the identification and diagnosis of SM, which ultimately guides treatment selection.

Advancing Multidisciplinary Care in TGCT: Integrating Systemic Therapies and Surgical Approaches
2/28/2025
Host: William D. Tap, MD
Host: John Healey, MD
In this activity, a medical oncologist and orthopedic surgeon discuss evidence-based surgical and systemic therapy approaches for the treatment of tenosynovial giant cell tumors (TGCT). Topics include differentiating TGCT by presentation; surgical candidacy, approaches, and limitations; systemic treatment options with CSF1R inhibitors; and considerations for treatment selection with surgical, nonsurgical, or combination interventions. A patient case example is used to demonstrate optimal multidisciplinary and patient-centered treatment considerations and selection. Strategies for multidisciplinary collaboration to ensure comprehensive monitoring and effective disease management are also explored. Tune in to find out how to enhance the collaborative capacity of multidisciplinary teams in developing individualized, patient-centered treatment plans for patients with TGCT.
Vimseltinib is now FDA-approved for adult patients with symptomatic TGCT, for which surgical resection will potentially cause worsening functional limitation or severe morbidity. This activity was recorded prior to this FDA approval.
Patient Perspectives on Bladder Cancer
2/21/2025
Host: Elizabeth R. Plimack, MD, MS, FASCO
Guest: Lillibeth Velasco, MSN, RN
New understanding of molecular targets has helped transform invasive bladder cancer treatment, and guidelines now recommend chemotherapy-free immunotherapy as first-line treatment for metastatic bladder cancer (mBC), with additional studies investigating its role in neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatments for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). These newer immunotherapy treatments, however, can cause unique, sometimes life-threatening, adverse events (AEs).
This activity has been designed to review the latest treatment guidelines for mBC, explore emerging immunotherapy treatments in MIBC, and provide the mBC patient perspective on AEs seen with newer immunotherapy.
