TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows, surgeons and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

OVERVIEW OF ACTIVITY
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth most common cause of cancer-related death among US men and women. The overwhelming majority (approximately 90%) of pancreatic cancers are ductal adenocarcinomas, and many patients diagnosed with pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAD) do not exhibit distinctive symptoms until the disease has reached an advanced stage. For all stages of PAD the combined 1-year survival rate for patients who do not receive surgery is approximately 29%, and the 5-year rate is an appalling 7%. Published results from ongoing trials have led to the emergence of new therapeutic targets and regimens, and the poor clinical course for so many patients with progressive PAD mandates the consideration of these approaches. In order to offer optimal patient care — including the option of clinical trial participation — the practicing medical oncologist must be well informed of these advances.

This CME program was developed from the proceedings of a satellite symposium held during the 2019 Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium. It explores the most significant therapeutic advances in the field of pancreatic cancer by using the perspectives of leading experts on challenging cases and questions submitted by community oncologists to frame a discussion of how this information has aided in the refinement of current clinical practice and ongoing research. This activity will help medical oncologists and other allied healthcare professionals find answers to the individualized questions and concerns they frequently encounter, and in turn it will help them to provide high-quality cancer care.
