Thursday, September 24, 2026 11 AM-12 PM CT
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.

Molecular Pathology Selected Abstracts, 8/14

August 2014—The dystrophin gene is the largest known human gene, comprising 2.2 Mb of the genome and 79 coding exons: Through the use of multiple tissue-specific promoters and alternative splicing of RNA, several isoforms of the protein dystrophin are encoded by the dystrophin (DMD) gene. The primary 427-kDA dystrophin isoform (Dp427) is found in the cytoplasm of skeletal and cardiac muscle cells, where it is involved in physically linking the cytoskeleton to protein structures outside the cell and, therefore, strengthens and protects muscle fibers during contraction and relaxation.

From the President’s Desk: From representation to RUC, reasons to join AMA

August 2014—It was my good fortune to be introduced to practice by a group of pathologists with a tradition of robust professional engagement. In residency or shortly thereafter, all of us joined the CAP, our state pathology society, state medical society, and the AMA because we were brought to understand it was the right thing to do. Explicitly and by example, mentors and partners have taught me a lot.

Put It on the Board, 8/14

August 2014—Time is running short for laboratories to figure out how they will comply with a federal regulation that for the first time requires all U.S. labs to give patients their test reports within 30 days of request.

Q & A Column, 8/14

August 2014—Is there a trough and crest occurrence with blood testosterone levels, or is it like thyroid testing, where one’s result is the total of the previous several days? What is the relationship between the presence of moderate to many spherocytes and the MCHC parameter? We always thought cases that show spherocytes on the blood smear are usually associated with high MCHC. We had a case of autoimmune hemolytic anemia with moderate spherocytes, but the MCHC was normal.

August 2014—Smartphone use in AP ‘immature’ but advancing: It may never be as famous as Snapchat or Instagram, but another method of photo sharing is gaining favor with some anatomic pathologists by allowing them to use their smartphones to send images from glass slides quickly and inexpensively. “The use of smartphones is still at an immature stage for pathology, but I think the emerging area is utilizing the camera functions in the phones to manage decisionmaking,” says Douglas J. Hartman, MD, assistant professor, Department of Anatomic Pathology, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

August 2014—GATA3: a multispecific but potentially useful marker in surgical pathology: The transcription factor GATA3 is important for differentiating breast epithelia, urothelia, and subsets of T lymphocytes. It has been suggested that it may be useful in evaluating carcinomas of mammary or urothelial origin or metastatic carcinomas, but its distribution in normal and neoplastic tissues is incompletely mapped. The authors conducted a study in which they examined normal developing and adult tissues and 2,040 epithelial and 460 mesenchymal or neuroectodermal neoplasms for GATA3 expression to explore its diagnostic value in surgical pathology.

August 2014—Anti-D alloimmunization after D-incompatible platelet transfusions: Because a small but immunogenic dose of red blood cells may be contained in apheresis platelets, transfusion services establish protocols to provide D– recipients with D– platelets to prevent anti-D alloimmunization. This is of particular concern for young females as there is potential for hemolytic disease of the newborn. In cases where D+ platelets are given to D– recipients, Rh immune globulin (RhIG) may be used to help prevent sensitization. The authors retrospectively analyzed during a 14-year period the anti-D formation in D– recipients who received D+ platelets without the use of RhIG.

July 2014—Is there a role for molecular diagnostics in bladder cancer? Bladder cancer is the fourth most common cancer in men in the United States and is associated with high rates of cancer morbidity and mortality worldwide. Multiple subtypes of bladder cancer have been identified, the most common of which is urothelial cancer.

From the President’s Desk: Collaborating when and where it matters, 7/14

July 2014—I recently attended my first meeting as a member of the American Society of Clinical Oncology. I joined ASCO because I’ve been so impressed with the members I’ve met and the way they contribute to our work. I learned a lot and enjoyed the company, which means that I plan to attend their meetings whenever I can and hope many of you will do the same.

July 2014—Effects of fish oil in recent-onset rheumatoid arthritis: a patient study: The omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaneonic acid (DHA), which are found in fish oil, can suppress synthesis of the omega-6 proinflammatory eicosanoids prostaglandin E2 and leukotriene B4. The effects of fish oil as a dietary supplement in rheumatoid arthritis have been studied in randomized, controlled trials for patient-assessed pain, morning stiffness, number of painful or tender joints, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug consumption.
