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.

April 2016—Logistics hurdles overcome for single Pap-HPV report: Is one test better than two? That question—primary HPV versus the Pap-HPV cotesting option—has roiled the world of cervical cancer screening since the Food and Drug Administration approved a primary HPV screening test in April 2014. However clinicians decide to answer that question, this much is clear: A single report is better than two separate results.
April 2016—Genomic analyses to identify molecular subtypes of pancreatic cancer; Utility of noninvasive prenatal screening to detect abnormalities genome wide
March 2016—Reproducibility of residual cancer burden for assessing breast cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy: The residual cancer burden index was developed to quantify residual disease ranging from pathological complete response to extensive residual disease. The authors conducted a study to evaluate inter-pathologist reproducibility in the residual cancer burden index score and category and in their long-term prognostic utility.
March 2016—Enhancing tumor selectivity of a picornavirus virotherapy: Oncolytic viruses that selectively target tumor cells are a promising cancer therapy and are thought to work not only via direct lysis and destruction of tumor cells but also through recruitment and activation of the host’s anti-tumor immune response. While there are a number of naturally occurring viruses that preferentially replicate in cancer cells and have otherwise limited effects in human tissue, the real therapeutic promise lies in genetically engineered viruses.
March 2016—Impact of add-on laboratory testing at an academic medical center: Clinical laboratories are often asked to perform additional laboratory tests after the original sample is received and testing per the original order is complete. It is well known that this significantly increases laboratory workload and impacts turnaround time.
March 2016—I have a question regarding auto-verification delta checks, not for a single patient but between all patients tested during a given period. Are there labs that use postanalytic comparisons of clinical lab results during the testing interval between quality assurance checks to ascertain if the autoverified results being released are reasonable?
March 2016—Digital consults: options for getting from here to there: The U.S. digital pathology consultation marketplace is steadily gaining ground, largely owing to increased demand for international consultations. And those delving into digital consults are making a three-pronged decision: build your own system, install an off-the-shelf software solution, or sign up with a Web-based digital consultation network.
March 2016—Case raises uncertainty on autopsy’s legal status: Should a hospital-provided autopsy be considered health care? It’s a question the Supreme Court of Texas will decide this spring, and its answer to that question will make a big difference—in the millions of dollars—to the claimants, Christus Health Gulf Coast v. Carswell. It could also have an impact on the medical liability coverage available to pathologists who perform autopsies in the Lone Star State.
March 2016—Changes in how our government operates are not always evident from day to day, but patterns emerge over time. It is clear we are moving inexorably toward a value-based system of care. New terminology, initialisms, and performance metrics have entered the lexicon.
February 2016—As a pathologist, reference laboratory medical director, and academic department chair, my day-to-day activities center upon administration, transfusion medicine and apheresis services, and teaching. Every time I turn to my clinical responsibilities, I am reminded of why I do everything else—and why I won’t give them up.
