Uncovering Gene Fusions & Other Key Genomic Alterations in Lung, Thyroid, Colon, Breast, and Other Solid Tumors to Enable All Patients to Gain the Full Benefits of Targeted Treatment

Media: Enduring Material
Activity Release Date: August 16, 2022
Activity Expiration Date: September 15, 2023
Time to Complete Activity: 60 minutes

Activity Description

Gene fusions and other key alterations (NTRK, RET, and others) represent actionable targets in a substantial proportion of patients with solid tumors. Appropriate biomarker testing is crucial to identify all alterations that are treatable with current or investigational targeted therapies. Multikinase tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been used to treat such alterations, but they have limited efficacy. Therefore, next-generation TKIs with greater selectivity have been developed and approved for tumor-agnostic indications (such as NTRK alterations) and for specific tumor types (such as RET alterations in lung and thyroid cancers). These newer therapies have demonstrated impressive efficacy with favorable safety profiles, and their use can significantly improve patient outcomes and quality of life. The tumor-agnostic indications are anticipated to expand further, and novel options are also emerging for patients who have developed resistance to standard RET- and TRK-targeted therapies.

In this PeerView educational offering, experts on gene fusion-positive solid tumors provide a cutting-edge update on the role and relevance of gene fusions and other key alterations in solid tumors. These KOLs offer guidance on how to best identify patients with gene alterations and discuss accumulating clinical evidence for the best use of targeted therapies, while also providing practical guidance for optimizing multidisciplinary and interprofessional strategies for biomarker testing and use of targeted therapy across solid tumors harboring NTRK and RET fusions and other actionable alterations.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of medical and clinical oncologists, pathologists, molecular pathologists, advanced practice providers, nurses, and other clinicians involved in the management of patients with solid tumors.

Educational Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

• Describe the role of NTRK, RET, ALK, and other key genomic alterations in the oncogenesis of solid tumors, the importance of appropriate biomarker testing to identify patients with these alterations, and clinical evidence supporting the use of matched targeted therapies to optimize patient outcomes
• Collaborate with the broader cancer care team to identify patients for biomarker testing, select appropriate tests to capture all relevant genomic alterations, including gene fusions, and interpret testing results to guide treatment selection
• Apply the latest evidence and guidelines to individualize targeted therapy for patients with cancers harboring NTRK, RET, ALK, and other targetable genomic alterations
• Educate patients about the role of biomarker testing, risks and benefits of targeted therapies, and importance of selecting optimal therapy based on biomarker testing results and patient needs, values, and preferences

Uncovering Gene Fusions & Other Key Genomic Alterations in Lung, Thyroid, Colon, Breast, and Other Solid Tumors to Enable All Patients to Gain the Full Benefits of Targeted Treatment

Media: Enduring Material
Activity Release Date: August 16, 2022
Activity Expiration Date: September 15, 2023
Time to Complete Activity: 60 minutes

Activity Description

Gene fusions and other key alterations (NTRK, RET, and others) represent actionable targets in a substantial proportion of patients with solid tumors. Appropriate biomarker testing is crucial to identify all alterations that are treatable with current or investigational targeted therapies. Multikinase tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been used to treat such alterations, but they have limited efficacy. Therefore, next-generation TKIs with greater selectivity have been developed and approved for tumor-agnostic indications (such as NTRK alterations) and for specific tumor types (such as RET alterations in lung and thyroid cancers). These newer therapies have demonstrated impressive efficacy with favorable safety profiles, and their use can significantly improve patient outcomes and quality of life. The tumor-agnostic indications are anticipated to expand further, and novel options are also emerging for patients who have developed resistance to standard RET- and TRK-targeted therapies.

In this PeerView educational offering, experts on gene fusion-positive solid tumors provide a cutting-edge update on the role and relevance of gene fusions and other key alterations in solid tumors. These KOLs offer guidance on how to best identify patients with gene alterations and discuss accumulating clinical evidence for the best use of targeted therapies, while also providing practical guidance for optimizing multidisciplinary and interprofessional strategies for biomarker testing and use of targeted therapy across solid tumors harboring NTRK and RET fusions and other actionable alterations.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of medical and clinical oncologists, pathologists, molecular pathologists, advanced practice providers, nurses, and other clinicians involved in the management of patients with solid tumors.

Educational Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

• Describe the role of NTRK, RET, ALK, and other key genomic alterations in the oncogenesis of solid tumors, the importance of appropriate biomarker testing to identify patients with these alterations, and clinical evidence supporting the use of matched targeted therapies to optimize patient outcomes
• Collaborate with the broader cancer care team to identify patients for biomarker testing, select appropriate tests to capture all relevant genomic alterations, including gene fusions, and interpret testing results to guide treatment selection
• Apply the latest evidence and guidelines to individualize targeted therapy for patients with cancers harboring NTRK, RET, ALK, and other targetable genomic alterations
• Educate patients about the role of biomarker testing, risks and benefits of targeted therapies, and importance of selecting optimal therapy based on biomarker testing results and patient needs, values, and preferences

Moving the Treatment of Advanced Gastroesophageal Cancers Forward: How Can We Maximize the Benefits of Novel Immunotherapy Approaches?

Activity Description and Educational Objectives

Recently approved immunotherapy options have revolutionized the treatment of patients with advanced gastroesophageal cancers (eg, gastric adenocarcinoma, gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, esophageal adenocarcinoma, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma [ESCC]), which have traditionally been associated with poor outcomes due to late detection, high heterogeneity, and limited response to chemotherapy and targeted treatments. With clinical trials validating the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibition across multiple lines of therapy and regardless of PD-L1 expression, nivolumab and pembrolizumab have become standards of care in the frontline setting as part of various combinations, and nivolumab monotherapy has been approved in patients with ESCC after previous chemotherapy. Recently, nivolumab plus ipilimumab became the first chemotherapy-free combination to gain approval for frontline use in patients with ESCC. In light of these treatment advances, do you know how to select among the different immunotherapy options and determine the best therapeutic approach for each of your patients with advanced gastroesophageal cancers? Hear from the experts on which biomarkers and other factors are/are not helpful in guiding clinical decisions, and how you can bring your patients the latest cutting-edge therapies backed by robust evidence. Also, learn from illustrative cases discussed by the faculty on how to apply the current data to practice.

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

• Identify patients with advanced gastroesophageal cancers (ie, gastric, GEJ, or esophageal cancer) who may benefit from recently approved immunotherapy options based on efficacy and safety evidence
• Incorporate recently approved immunotherapy options into treatment plans for eligible patients with advanced gastroesophageal cancers across multiple lines of therapy
• Apply a team approach to optimize the use of immunotherapy, including strategies to promptly recognize and manage immune-related adverse event, in patients with advanced gastroesophageal cancers

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of oncologists, primary care physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other clinicians involved in the management of patients with advanced gastroesophageal cancer.

Requirements for Successful Completion

In order to receive credit, participants must view the activity and complete the post-test and evaluation form. A score of 80% or higher is needed to obtain CME/MOC credit and 75% or higher to obtain NCPD credit.
