PeerView Gastroenterology CME/CNE/CPE Video Podcast

Oncology nurses are at the forefront of care for patients with pancreatic cancer, a much-feared disease whose management was for years characterized by modestly effective treatment options. The recent emergence of new cytotoxic platforms combined with rapid research on potent targeted therapies has made the role of the nurse as a caregiver and educator more important than ever, particularly because these new options differ greatly from conventional chemotherapy strategies. In this activity based on a recent live symposium held in Anaheim during the Oncology Nursing Society’s (ONS) 44th Annual Congress, expert nurse faculty use a patient-voice inclusive MasterClass designed to provide real-world guidance for effective translation of the latest evidence into clinical practice. In addition, the experts offer their perspectives on the unique needs and concerns of patients, and how engagement strategies can shape individualized, patient-centric management plans throughout the continuum of pancreatic cancer care. This activity also features perspectives from pancreatic cancer patients developed in collaboration with Let’s Win, an affiliate of the Lustgarten Foundation. Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to: Summarize updated efficacy and safety evidence on therapeutic strategies in pancreatic cancer, including cytotoxic platforms and chemotherapy sequencing approaches, targeted agents directed against molecular features/mutations, or tumor treating field therapy, among others, Educate patients on the clinical uses and potential of clinical trials investigating novel therapeutics alone and in combination with cytotoxic regimens in the pancreatic cancer setting, Provide guidance to patients on therapeutic sequencing with cytotoxic platforms in advanced pancreatic cancer based upon available evidence, guideline recommendations, and disease- and patient-specific characteristics, Manage adverse events associated with established and emerging therapies for pancreatic cancer.

Novel medical technologies have revolutionized the therapeutic management of difficult-to-treat cancers. In particular, tumor treating fields (TTFields) therapy, which is a state-of-the-art, noninvasive modality that harnesses low intensity alternating electric fields to selectively disrupt tumor cell division and migration, has demonstrated clear benefits in terms of clinical efficacy and minimal toxicity in solid tumors. Approved for the therapeutic management of recurrent and newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) as well as unresectable, previously untreated malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM), TTFields therapy in combination with other conventional cancer treatments is being explored in a number of ongoing clinical trials in patients with a range of solid tumors, including lung, pancreatic, gastric, liver, and ovarian cancers. This CME-accredited activity features a review of the latest advancements in cancer technology, along with expert insights and case discussions on the optimal integration and use of recently validated locoregional therapies, such as TTFields, in the clinic. The expert panel will also discuss key safety and efficacy data from recent pivotal clinical trials studying multimodal treatment strategies in GBM, MPM, and other solid tumor types. Upon completion of this CE activity, participants will be able to: Describe the mechanistic rationale and clinical evidence for validated locoregional therapies, such as tumor treating fields (TTFields), for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM), Appraise new clinical evidence on investigational multimodal strategies with synergistic mechanisms of action (eg, TTFields in combination with systemic therapy, radiotherapy, or other modalities) across a range of solid tumor types, including lung, pancreatic, gastric, liver, and ovarian cancers, Integrate novel locoregional therapies into the therapeutic management of appropriately selected patients with GBM, MPM, or other solid tumors, including via clinical trial enrollment, Implement team-based strategies to minimize and manage adverse events associated with novel therapeutic modalities in patients with solid tumors.

As the treatment landscape for gastric and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancers continues to evolve, patients with these heterogenous and aggressive malignancies are benefiting from improved outcomes. Targeted therapies, such as anti-angiogenic agents, have had a beneficial role in the second-line gastric and GEJ cancer settings after prior fluoropyrimidine- or platinum-containing chemotherapy, while novel combinations with anti-angiogenesis agents, chemotherapy, and/or immunotherapy are showing promise in clinical trials. Furthermore, first-line therapy with an immune checkpoint inhibitor in combination with chemotherapy recently demonstrated improved outcomes over chemotherapy alone, and these data led to an FDA approval that is ushering in a new immunotherapy-based standard of care in the frontline treatment of newly diagnosed gastric and GEJ cancers. Join PeerView for an innovative, case-based activity designed to bring participants the latest data on established targeted therapies and emerging combination strategies for patients with gastric and GEJ cancers and expert guidance on incorporating treatment advances into day-to-day clinical practice. With a focus on multidisciplinary care of patients with gastric and GEJ cancers, the faculty panel will address selection and sequencing of treatment regimens along with symptom management, psychological support, nutritional considerations, and a variety of other issues that affect patients’ quality of life and outcomes. Upon completion of this accredited CE activity, participants should be better able to: Evaluate the latest clinical evidence on established targeted therapies (eg, anti-angiogenic agents) and emerging combination strategies (eg, with chemotherapy or immune checkpoint inhibitors) for patients with advanced gastric or GEJ cancer, Discuss the clinical implications of recently approved and emerging first-line treatment strategies in the settings of advanced gastric or GEJ cancer that take into consideration the potential impact of treatment selection and sequencing beyond first-line therapy, Implement a tailored approach to treatment selection and sequencing over multiple lines of therapy, based on the latest clinical evidence, current practice guidelines, and patient-, disease-, and treatment-specific factors, for patients with advanced gastric or GEJ cancer, Integrate multidisciplinary, interprofessional, and holistic care strategies that address nutritional needs, emotional and psychological concerns, treatment-related adverse events, the risk of disease progression, and other issues into the management of patients with advanced gastric or GEJ cancer.
