Live CME/MOC-accredited webinar

Topics to Be Discussed

  • Module 1: Kidney Cancer
  • Module 2: Urothelial Bladder Cancer

Target Audience
This program is intended for medical and radiation oncologists, urologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other allied healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of kidney and bladder cancer.

Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to

  • Evaluate recently presented data with adjuvant anti-PD-1 antibody-based therapies for patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) at high risk for recurrence after nephrectomy, and consider the current role of this strategy.
  • Appraise available clinical trial data evaluating anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody/multikinase inhibitor combinations for previously untreated metastatic RCC, and counsel patients regarding the risks and benefits of these novel regimens.
  • Review the biologic rationale underlying the investigation of anti-PD-1/anti-CTLA-4/multikinase inhibitor combination therapy as first-line treatment for patients with metastatic RCC, and appreciate emerging research documenting the effectiveness of this approach.
  • Develop a rational approach to the sequencing of systemic therapies for patients with advanced RCC who experience disease progression on first-line treatment, incorporating multikinase inhibitors, mTOR inhibitors, immunotherapeutic agents and other therapies.
  • Consider available data supporting the use of anti-PD-1 antibody therapy for high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer that is unresponsive to BCG, and determine how this strategy can be appropriately integrated into patient care.
  • Assess available clinical research findings with and the current clinical role of adjuvant anti-PD-1 antibody therapy for high-risk muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
  • Review clinical trial evidence with immune checkpoint inhibitors as monotherapy or as maintenance after platinum-based chemotherapy in the treatment of newly diagnosed metastatic urothelial bladder cancer (UBC), and determine the current utility of these agents in clinical practice.
  • Recall pivotal clinical trial findings leading to the FDA approval of novel compounds with unique mechanisms of action for previously treated locally advanced or metastatic UBC, and identify patients for whom these approaches would be appropriate.
  • Appreciate the biologic rationale for combining anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies with other systemic agents with established efficacy for UBC, and assess the current and potential roles of these regimens in patient care.
  • Reflect on available and emerging data with investigational agents and strategies currently in testing for RCC and UBC, and refer eligible patients for clinical trial participation.
