This session explores the evolving role of RAS in precision oncology, from the biology of RAS mutations to the expanding landscape of targeted therapies. Through expert presentations, real-world case discussions, and interactive audience polling, participants will examine best practices for RAS biomarker testing across solid tumors, including lung, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers. The session will highlight practical considerations for tissue and liquid biopsy, strategies to address testing gaps, and the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration to ensure timely identification of patients who may benefit from RAS-targeted therapies.
Webinar presenters David Braxton, MD, Chief of Molecular Pathology Services, Hoag Family Cancer Institute & Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian, and Carlos Becerra, MD, Research Director for Medical Oncology, Margaret Given Larkin Endowed Chair for Developmental Cancer Therapeutics, Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian.

May 2022—Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is the most common form of pancreatic cancer and a major cause of cancer death, despite its relatively low occurrence rate. Its high mortality levels are attributed to late diagnosis and limited therapeutic options.
May 2022—Carcinoma with apocrine differentiation is an androgen receptor-positive subset of triple-negative breast carcinoma. In addition to carcinoma with apocrine differentiation, other androgen receptor-positive triple-negative breast carcinomas occur, albeit less frequently.
May 2022—An outgrowth of the COVID-19 pandemic has been a need to provide SARS-CoV-2 molecular testing and an increased need to manage workforce shortages, respond to fluctuations in specimen volumes, and shift to digital platforms for diagnostic work and education, among other challenges.
May 2022—The most common cause of death related to gynecological malignancies is epithelial ovarian cancer. One of the biggest challenges to treating this disease is the lack of reliable biomarkers for identifying its underlying precancerous and early stages. The study of epigenetic changes in epithelial cells shows some promise for detecting early ovarian cancer. In previous studies, DNA methylation performed on blood samples demonstrated important epigenetic changes associated with ovarian cancer but did not yield realistic screening parameters due to the heterogeneity of blood samples. To identify ovarian cancer risk earlier, the authors conducted a molecular epigenetic analysis of cervical epithelial cells derived from the Mullerian duct and collected using the ThinPrep system to establish a methylation model index called the Women’s Risk Identification for Ovarian Cancer [WID-OC] index.
March 2022—Many people infected with SARS-CoV-2 do not develop severe symptoms and, therefore, may not know they are infected. Serological testing may help identify those who are asymptomatic and, thereby, reduce transmission.
March 2022—Invasive gallbladder carcinoma is preceded by two main types of precursor lesions—intracholecystic papillary-tubular neoplasms and biliary intraepithelial neoplasias. Invasive gallbladder carcinomas with an intracholecystic papillary-tubular neoplasm (ICPN) component have more favorable prognoses than those without an ICPN component.
March 2022—Why are immunotherapies effective for some patients but not others—even among those with the same histologic tumor type and similar mutational burdens?
