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

March 2015—CMS to alter reporting period for meaningful use: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has announced that it intends to engage in rulemaking to shorten the reporting period for stage two meaningful use attestation this year from 365 to 90 days under the EHR incentive programs.
March 2015—Chimeric antigen receptor T cells for sustained remissions in leukemia: Relapsed and refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia is associated with a poor prognosis. T cells genetically modified to express chimeric antigen receptors targeted to cells expressing CD19 (CTL019) are a promising treatment strategy, with complete responses previously reported in two patients who had relapsed and refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
March 2015—Histopathologic spectrum of thecoma of the ovary: a report of 70 cases: The authors evaluated 70 cases of thecoma of the ovary to ascertain their histopathologic spectrum. The tumors occurred over a wide age range (average, 49.6 years). Presentation in the form of pelvic or abdominal pain was uncommon, but postmenopausal bleeding was relatively frequent.
March 2015—Generation of allergen-specific human IgEs as standards in diagnostic allergy testing: Diagnostic allergy testing for patients with moderate to severe allergies is usually performed by an allergy specialist and can include skin prick and patch tests or blood tests.
AMP outlines laboratory view on incidental findings: The American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics’ controversial 2013 recommendations on the reporting of incidental findings on select genes was the first attempt to address the matter in the clinical setting. But the ACMG’s recommendations pose significant challenges that labs undertaking next-generation sequencing must be prepared to address, said a special report written by an Association for Molecular Pathology working group.
February 2015—Two medical organizations said that using an HPV test alone for cervical cancer screening is an effective alternative to the current recommendation for screening with either cytology alone or cotesting with cytology and HPV testing. Pathology leaders said the multispecialty-developed guidance leaves the Pap test standing as a first-line screening option.
February 2015—Increasingly sophisticated laboratory-developed tests have populated the testing landscape rapidly in recent years, and the CAP has worked with government agencies and private stakeholders to address effective oversight. The Food and Drug Administration has issued draft guidance describing its thinking about that oversight.
February 2015—Alteration of ARID1A gene, PI3K-Akt pathway, and ZNF217 gene in ovarian clear cell carcinoma: AT-rich interactive domain 1A (ARID1A) is a subunit of switch/sucrose nonfermentable (SWI/SNF) complex. Recently, alterations of the ARID1A gene, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-protein kinase B (PI3K-Akt) pathway, and zinc-finger protein 217 (ZNF217) gene have been identified as frequent molecular genetic changes in ovarian clear cell carcinoma.
February 2015—Exome and genome sequencing for neurodevelopmental disorders: Neurodevelopmental disorders, which affect more than three percent of children, are associated with a variable type and acuity of presentation, ranging from global developmental delay, to autism, to intellectual disability.
February 2015—Alcohol consumption relative to type of breast cancer risk in postmenopausal women: Alcohol consumption is a known risk factor for breast cancer, but it is not known which subtypes of breast cancer, if any, are more likely associated with alcohol consumption. The authors conducted a large study using the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial cohort to test for heterogeneity in alcohol-related risk by breast cancer subtypes defined by estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) status and histological type.
