MODULE 1: Biology of Advanced Endometrial Cancer; Optimal Approach to Biomarker Assessment for Patients with Newly Diagnosed Disease
Clinical characteristics associated with various histologic subtypes of endometrial cancer; relationship between histologic subtype and response to available therapies
Rationale for the division of endometrial cancer into major molecular subgroups; implications of each of these for prognosis and therapeutic decision-making
Indications for and optimal approach to assessment for biomarkers of response to immune checkpoint inhibition (eg, microsatellite instability [MSI]/mismatch repair [MMR] status, POLE mutations, tumor mutational burden, PD-L1 status) in patients with advanced endometrial cancer
Incidence and prognostic or predictive implications of BRCA1/2 and other homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene mutations in patients with advanced endometrial cancer; current and future role of HRR testing
Guideline-endorsed approach to assessment for other clinically relevant biomarkers (eg, TP53 status, HER2 and hormone receptor status) in advanced endometrial cancer
MODULE 2: Current Up-Front Chemoimmunotherapeutic Approaches for Advanced Endometrial Cancer
Similarities and differences among the designs of and populations enrolled in the Phase III RUBY, NRG-GY018 and DUO-E trials evaluating the addition of dostarlimab, pembrolizumab and durvalumab, respectively, to platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment for advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer
Published progression-free survival, overall survival and other efficacy and safety outcomes from RUBY, NRG-GY018 and DUO-E
Antitumor activity observed with chemotherapy in combination with dostarlimab, pembrolizumab and durvalumab, respectively, in various patient subgroups (based on MSI/MMR status, HER2 status, molecular subtype, etc) in RUBY, NRG-GY018 and DUO-E
FDA approvals of dostarlimab and pembrolizumab in combination with chemotherapy for patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer regardless of MMR status and of durvalumab in combination with chemotherapy for those with MMR-deficient disease; optimal incorporation into up-front therapy
Ongoing Phase III studies (eg, DOMENICA, KEYNOTE-C93) evaluating first-line anti-PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor monotherapy for MSI-high/MMR-deficient advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer
MODULE 3: Current and Future Role of Anti-PD-1/PD-L1 Antibodies in Combination with Systemic Therapies Beyond Chemotherapy for Advanced Endometrial Cancer
Rationale for the evaluation of PARP inhibition for advanced endometrial cancer; possible therapeutic synergy between anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies and PARP inhibitors
Key efficacy and safety findings from the Phase III RUBY Part 2 and DUO-E trials evaluating first-line chemoimmunotherapy followed by anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody and PARP inhibitor maintenance for newly diagnosed advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer; outcomes in various patient subsets
Potential patient selection for and roles of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody and PARP inhibitor maintenance for advanced endometrial cancer
Long-term findings with pembrolizumab/lenvatinib for advanced endometrial cancer previously treated with a platinum-based regimen; optimal integration into current management algorithms
Published findings supporting the utility of bevacizumab for TP53-mutant advanced endometrial cancer; ongoing Phase III NRG-GY035 study evaluating the addition of bevacizumab to up-front chemoimmunotherapy for MMR-proficient, TP53-mutated disease
Target Audience
This activity is intended for gynecologic oncologists, medical oncologists, gynecologists and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of gynecologic cancers.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to
Assess the clinical and biological characteristics of the various histologic subtypes and molecular subgroups of endometrial cancer and consider the implications for prognosis and therapeutic decision-making.
Evaluate the importance of microsatellite instability (MSI) and mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency assessment in the management of endometrial cancer, and adapt current testing practices to optimally identify patients with corresponding genetic abnormalities.
Appreciate available clinical research findings with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies in combination with chemotherapy as first-line treatment for advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer, and educate patients with MSI-high/MMR-deficient or microsatellite-stable/MMR-proficient disease about this novel strategy.
Understand the biological rationale for and available data with the use of PARP inhibitors in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy for advanced or metastatic endometrial cancer.
Recognize available data with the use of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies in combination with agents targeting the VEGF pathway, and select patients with metastatic endometrial cancer for this novel approach.
Recognize adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibitor-based approaches used in the treatment of endometrial cancer to educate patients and manage complications.
