Learning Objectives
After participating in this educational activity, participants should be better able to:
- Integrate a multidisciplinary-based approach with pathologists to optimally implement biomarker testing in patients with gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies
- Improve the identification of patients eligible for HER2-directed therapies in the second-line treatment of advanced HER2-positive gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancer
- Contextualize the evidence from ongoing trials exploring HER2-directed therapy with the potential to impact guidelines and new indications
- Evaluate the clinical significance of HER2 alterations and early clinical trial evidence in patients with biliary tract cancers
- Incorporate therapeutic options to improve response and durability following progression on frontline therapy in HER2-amplified metastatic colorectal cancer
- Develop multidisciplinary care pathways to improve the early recognition and management of treatment-related adverse events with HER2-directed therapies in patients with GI malignancies
Target Audience
This activity is designed to meet the educational needs of medical oncologists, nurse navigators and nurse oncology team members, gastroenterologists, pharmacists, pathologists, and other healthcare professionals who treat patients with GI cancers.
