In this new CME/MOC-accredited video activity, Josep Tabernero, MD, PhD; Geoffrey Ku, MD; and Kohei Shitara, MD, synthesize the latest data of emerging and available novel therapies and consider the future of gastric cancer care. These experts also examine best practices for testing biomarkers such as HER2, PD-L1, and MSI, and provide guidance on integrating scientific advances and novel therapeutics into sound, evidence-based management strategies to improve outcomes for patients with gastric cancer. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Review the biologic rationale for targeting molecular signatures of gastric cancer, such as HER2 or PD-L1 overexpression, Examine expert and guideline-based biomarker testing recommendations in gastric cancer that can guide optimal treatment selection, Assess the latest safety and efficacy evidence of novel therapeutics for gastric cancer, such as checkpoint inhibitors, cytotoxic agents, and HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugates, Develop safe and effective validated or emerging therapeutic strategies for advanced gastric/GEJ cancers based on treatment history, patient preference, performance status, and biomarker status for patients who have progressed following first-line treatment.
