Activity Overview
Over the past decade, oncology has begun to leverage a rapidly maturing effort to target the KRAS protein in KRAS-altered cancers. This has led to the introduction of targeted therapies with the potential to offer unprecedented benefit to patients. Still, these agents differ greatly in their mechanisms of action, relevant alterations, and adverse event profiles.
In this activity, expert faculty discuss the state of the art for targeting the RAS/MAPK signaling pathway in solid malignancies, with different modules focusing on the current efforts in gastrointestinal, lung, and gynecologic cancers.
