TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of medical and gastrointestinal oncologists and other clinicians involved in the management of gastrointestinal cancers.
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:
- Summarize the rationale for use of checkpoint inhibitors, including when testing for PD-L1, MMR/MSI status, and other predictors of response is needed, across the spectrum of GI cancers
- Appraise the latest safety and efficacy evidence on available dual and single agent checkpoint inhibition strategies for patients with advanced GI cancers, including gastric, esophageal, GEJ, and colorectal cancers
- Review emerging data regarding the use of checkpoint inhibitors in combination regimens and in early treatment settings, including first-line and perioperative settings, for patients with GI cancers
- Develop safe and effective treatment plans incorporating immune checkpoint inhibitors, including enrollment within clinical trials, for eligible patients with advanced and earlier-stage GI cancers
