PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Recent developments in our understanding of molecular information, the tumor environment, and sequencing of therapies have allowed for greater personalization of therapy for patients with solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. In a practice that’s constantly evolving, keeping up to date with testing strategies, patient assessment, treatment selection and adverse event management can be a challenge.

This case-based archived symposium offers practical guidance for best practices across malignancies. The symposium archive includes algorithms for treatment used in the case discussion by expert faculty and any relevant updates from the 2024 Annual Meeting in early June. The focus will be practical, applicable information you can use in the clinic immediately.
