Given the limited treatment options for patients with advanced HER2-positive (HER2+) solid tumors, recent regulatory approvals in the US and Europe have brought hope for many individuals in this patient population. The anticipated expansion of potential approvals in other regions globally underscores the need for clinicians worldwide to understand the importance of integrating routine molecular profiling into clinical practice to identify actionable biomarkers and tailor therapy accordingly. Other clinical protocols that would ensure accurate treatment selection include effective utilization of molecular tumor boards, which would enhance collaboration among the multidisciplinary team and lead to optimal patient outcomes. In this symposium, expert faculty will review the most recent data supporting the use of HER2-directed therapies, how to use molecular profiling to identify patients for whom these treatments are appropriate, and best practices for collaboration among the multidisciplinary team.
HER2+ Advanced Solid Tumors: A Fireside Chat on Harnessing Molecular Profiling to Improve Patient Outcomes

Learning Objectives
After participating in this educational activity, participants should be better able to:
- Identify the role of molecular profiling to guide HER2-positive tumor-agnostic treatment selection in advanced solid tumors
- Incorporate molecular profiling in all patients to ensure assessment for HER2-positivity in patients with advanced solid tumors
- Analyze the impact of a molecular tumor board on patients with HER2-positive advanced solid tumors
- Develop evidence- and guideline-based strategies for patient selection and sequencing of therapies in HER2-positive advanced solid tumors
- Integrate a multidisciplinary team-based approach to adverse event monitoring, prophylaxis, and management in patients with HER2-positive advanced solid tumors
Target Audience
This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of oncologists and pathologists as well as all other physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, and healthcare providers involved in managing patients with solid tumors.
