The rapid expansion of the renal cell carcinoma (RCC) therapeutic landscape has opened doors for clinical practice advancements for medical and urologic oncologists. The long-term data supporting the efficacy of dual checkpoint blockade, together with further follow-up reported for established immunotherapy-TKI partners, as well as new efficacious combinations, has increased the number of treatment choices in the frontline setting of advanced RCC as well. Designed to bridge the gap between theory and practice, this CME/MOC-certified educational activity, in partnership with KCCure, features expert guidance on how oncologists can integrate novel therapeutics, including immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and promising combination strategies, into the care of patients with RCC in a variety of settings. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Assess th

Patients with severe asthma, uncontrolled symptoms, and exacerbations are at risk of losing lung function over time. Despite the availability of numerous treatments, many patients with severe asthma remain uncontrolled. Evolving insights into the pathophysiology of severe asthma have led to the development of biologic therapies that target epithelial alarmins, and their use is not restricted by phenotype/endotype or biomarkers. In this activity, based on a recent live web broadcast, our experts will review the latest clinical data, including key insights from medical congresses up to and including ATS 2022, with respect to novel and emerging therapies and other factors that impact the selection of treatment for patients with severe asthma who continue to have uncontrolled disease despite treatment. You will achieve greater insight into the most up-to-date evidence on the pathoph

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) or scleroderma is a rare, often fatal connective tissue disease that affects multiple organ systems. Pulmonary involvement, particularly interstitial lung disease (ILD), occurs in the majority of patients with SSc and is now the number one cause of death in SSc. Early diagnosis is key and relies on evaluation of signs and symptoms, pulmonary function tests, and high-resolution computed tomography. Until recently, therapy for SSc-ILD has been limited to supportive care and immunosuppressants. Fortunately, antifibrotic agents approved for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) have either received approval, or are in development, for SSc-ILD. Because SSc-ILD affects multiple organ systems and has many comorbidities, interprofessional management is essential from diagnosis throughout the disease course. In this expert-led activity, you will be able to self-ass

The past decade has seen new insights into the cytogenetics, molecular genetics, and disease biology of myelofibrosis (MF), including the approval of first- and second-generation JAK inhibitors and newer evidence on using JAK inhibitors in conjunction with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT). How can all of these advances be employed in an effective and safe way—and lead to improved outcomes in MF? Based on a recent PeerView Live CaseBook event, this activity will answer that question and offer an expert-led review of the latest efficacy, safety, and tolerability data associated with JAKi-based therapy and the role of HCT in patient treatment. This program also features case-based illustrations of therapy selection and sequencing designed to highlight the key take-homes of the MF lecture segments. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

With the recent approval of multiple novel therapeutics for patients with bladder cancer, oncology professionals have increased opportunities to improve outcomes in a variety of settings. However, not all patients are being given these promising new treatments. Management protocols often do not include the latest strategies, and clinicians often have several questions about incorporating these new agents, which include bladder-sparing options, immune checkpoint inhibitors, targeted therapies (FGFR inhibitors), and antibody-drug conjugates, into clinical practice. For instance, will the presence of immune-related adverse events (irAEs) in some patients linger after the end of therapy and limit the possible subsequent use of ADCs or FGFR inhibitors? To answer these questions, experts in bladder cancer highlight strategies for optimal care of patients in light of current evidence o

The recent transformation of the bladder cancer therapeutic landscape includes the PD-1/PD-L1–targeting immune checkpoint inhibitors for advanced/metastatic bladder cancer, erdafitinib for FGFR mutation–positive bladder tumors, and the antibody–drug conjugates enfortumab vedotin and sacituzumab govitecan in the post–immune checkpoint inhibitor setting. Utilizing these agents in localized disease settings has led to the emergence of novel bladder-sparing and perioperative approaches, including the first regulatory approval of adjuvant immunotherapy in high-risk muscle-invasive bladder cancer. In light of these developments, the challenge for urology professionals is how to best blend the diverse clinical evidence for these agents with the realities of real-world cancer care. This PeerView activity, developed in collaboration with the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network, will guide le

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a devastating, progressive neurodegenerative disorder affecting 10% of people over age 65 and increasing in global prevalence. Recent advances in disease-modifying therapies have opened the door to the possibility of treatment approaches that can slow or prevent disease progression and improve patient outcomes. Now, with several anti–amyloid beta (Aβ) monoclonal antibodies in late-stage development, there is hope for families, clinicians, and researchers. The greatest likelihood of treatment success lies in timely diagnosis and early intervention. In this activity, based on a live symposium held at the AD/PD 2022 International Conference on Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Diseases in Barcelona, Spain, an international panel of experts will discuss the importance of early recognition and diagnosis of AD and present the latest evidence on validated and emer

Prurigo nodularis (PN) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by intensely pruritic, hyperkeratotic nodules symmetrically distributed on the trunk and extremities. PN is defined by intense pruritus lasting ≥6 weeks, history of repeated scratching, and subsequent development of pruritic, elevated, firm, and nodular skin lesions, in a vicious itch–scratch cycle. The intense itch associated with PN leads to sleep disturbances and reduced social participation and work productivity, resulting in a drastically reduced quality of life and psychosocial disturbances. Unfortunately, these issues experienced among patients with PN are further compounded by the lack of effective treatment options. In this activity, based on a recent live educational symposium, a panel of experts addresses real-world questions and dilemmas faced by providers and the PN patients for whom they ca

Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is defined by the presence of recurrent urticaria, angioedema, or both, for a period of 6 weeks or longer. There are several theories regarding the pathogenesis of CSU, none of which have been conclusively established. CSU is a self-limited disorder in most patients, with an average duration of disease of 2 to 5 years; although active CSU significantly impairs quality of life. Second-generation H1 antihistamines (sgAHs) in standard dose are effective in less than 50% of CSU patients. Increasing the dose of sgAHs improves treatment responses; however, every third to fourth patient will still remain symptomatic. Omalizumab, an anti-IgE monoclonal antibody, may also be used for effective treatment, as well as cyclosporine. The current guideline-recommended treatment algorithm, though useful, is not perfect. The treatment of patients with CSU shou

It is estimated that there are about 1 million adults in the United States who identify as transgender, and this number may be higher depending on the surveys used, the questions asked, and the diversity of subcultures within the transgender community. Although being transgender is not in itself a medical condition, transgender individuals have unique healthcare needs and face barriers to screening and preventive care, particularly with cancer screening. Consequently, these patients may receive lower quality medical care than the general population as a result of stigma, discrimination, and providers’ lack of knowledge about gender identity. Additionally, transgender patients may only seek medical care as part of gender affirmation and avoid primary care health concerns, including screenings. This activity, based on a recent live web broadcast, will focus on improving cancer pre
