Overview
Seventy-nine thousand patients will be diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) this year, and approximately 13,900 will die from the disease in the US alone. Early detection is associated with a better 5-year survival rate (SR); however, the 5-year SR drops drastically from localized disease (92.6%) to distant disease (11.7%). RCC management is undergoing rapid changes, and the numerous therapies available challenge health care professionals to keep up-to-date with an ever-expanding armamentarium.
During this live Show Me Your Care Plan! webcast, a panel of distinguished specialists will engage in spirted discussions about the latest data on current and emerging therapeutic strategies for the management of metastatic RCC and explore practical approaches to patient counseling and evidence-based strategies for the early detection and management of treatment-related adverse events. Case studies and lively panel discussions will place new developments into clinical context to help participants optimize care for patients with RCC.
