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.

February 2018—ARTEMIS trial: quantifying pathological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy: The Affordability and Real-World Antiplatelet Treatment Effectiveness after Myocardial Infarction Study, also known as the ARTEMIS trial, tested standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab in the treatment of HER2-negative early breast cancer.
February 2018—Gene expression and risk of leukemic transformation in myelodysplasia: The myelodysplastic syndromes represent a group of clonal hematopoietic disorders with varying prognoses, with survival ranging from a few months to more than 10 years. Multiple laboratory measurements have been used in attempts to provide reliable prognostic assessments, including bone marrow blast counts, severity of peripheral cytopenia, cytogenetic findings, and, most recently, gene-mutation profiling.
February 2018—The many facets of a laboratory IT budget: Creating an information technology budget for the laboratory may seem like a fairly straightforward, if painstaking, exercise. But a number of factors that can affect the laboratory’s bottom line are frequently overlooked during the budgeting process, according to two health care consultants who spoke with cap today.
February 2018—I come from a core (hematology/chemistry) background, and I would like practical, how-to guidance in developing an effective QC strategy for HIV viral load testing. What performance characteristics do you verify? How many and what type of samples do you use? What are the chosen acceptable thresholds? Do you use L-J charts? If so, what do you plot, what control rules do you select, and how do you select them?
February 2018—PreludeDx unveils predictive assay for DCIS: PreludeDx announced results from its oral presentation at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium. The results using the SweDCIS randomized trial confirmed that the DCISionRT test predicts which patients with ductal carcinoma in situ will benefit from radiation therapy after breast-conserving surgery.
