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.

November 2013—Philip T. Cagle, MD, was presented Oct. 13 with the Pathologist of the Year award during an evening event at the CAP ’13 annual meeting in Kissimmee, Fla. At the same event, at the Gaylord Palms Orlando, Feriyl Bhaijee, MBChB, was honored as Resident of the Year, and Si Van Nguyen, MD, received the second annual CAP Foundation Gene & Jean Herbek Humanitarian award.
October 2013—Performance of assays used in the U.S. to diagnose Lyme borreliosis acquired in Europe: The most common tick-borne infection reported in the United States is Lyme disease, which can be acquired in the United States or while traveling in Europe. Evaluation of Lyme disease acquired in Europe, by doctors in the United States, is challenging because assays used in the United States use lysates of the original Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto isolate (B31 strain).
October 2013—Acellular mucin in rectal cancer patients showing pathologic complete response to preoperative chemoradiotherapy; Association between p16 expression and human papillomavirus in urinary bladder squamous cell carcinoma; Immunohistochemical signature comprising PTEN, MYC, and Ki-67 and disease progression in prostate cancer; Preoperative BRAF(V600E) mutation screening: likelihood of altering initial surgery for indeterminate thyroid nodules; Claudin expression in high-grade invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast; Interobserver agreement in assessing lung cancer: H&E diagnostic reproducibility for non-small cell lung carcinoma
September 2013—Quantification of the Ki67 proliferative index in neuroendocrine tumors of the gastroenteropancreatic system; Clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical study of intrapulmonary SFTs; Papillary mucinous metaplasia of the endometrium as a precursor of endometrial mucinous adenocarcinoma; Expression of miRNAs and PTEN in endometrial specimens; Molecular investigation of lymph nodes in colon cancer patients using OSNA; Thymidylate synthase expression and molecular alterations in adenosquamous carcinoma of the lung; Microdensitometry of osteopontin as a prognostic biomarker in colorectal carcinoma tissue microarrays; Evaluation of pathological and molecular features in clinically aggressive dermatofibromas; Interobserver agreement in the reporting of colorectal polyp pathology by bowel cancer screening pathologists
September 2013—Routine coagulation testing for patients presenting to the ED with chest pain; Prospective comparison of curbside versus formal consultations; Primary prevention of cardiovascular disease with a Mediterranean diet; Quick study: a case of Gamma heavy chain disease
August 2013—Recreational physical activity and leisure time relative to colorectal cancer survival; Dietary and supplemental calcium intake and cardiovascular disease death; Investigational vaccine for preventing S.aureus infections after cardiothoracic surgery
August 2013—Endometrium as a primary site of origin of pelvic high-grade serous carcinoma in BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation carriers; Criteria and pitfalls in diagnosis of lymphovascular invasion in prostatectomy specimens; An interobserver study of reproducibility in subtyping pulmonary adenocarcinomas; Value of PAX8, PAX2, claudin-4, and h-caldesmon in identifying peritoneal epithelioid mesotheliomas; Clinicopathologic study of cutaneous digital papillary adenocarcinoma;
July 2013—Intraoperative pathologic examination in the era of molecular testing for differentiated thyroid cancer: Diagnostic thyroidectomy is typically indicated for indeterminate thyroid cytology results. Traditionally, intraoperative pathologic examination (IOPE) helped guide the extent of initial surgery. Preoperative molecular testing of fine-needle aspiration cytology has emerged as another diagnostic adjunct, is highly specific for thyroid cancer, and can lead to appropriate initial total thyroidectomy.
July 2013—Risk factors for first venous thromboembolism around pregnancy: Venous thromboembolism is a serious maternal complication occurring at a rate of one to two per 1,000 maternities during pregnancy and the puerperium. Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a leading cause of maternal mortality in developed countries and an important source of morbidity in the form of post-thrombotic syndrome.
June 2013—Prolonged cold ischemia time and ER immunohistochemistry in breast cancer: To aid detection of estrogen receptor expression in breast tumors, the American Society of Clinical Oncology and College of American Pathologists recommend that cold ischemia time be kept under one hour. However, data to address the upper threshold of cold ischemia time are limited.
