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 2019—Digital pathology is many things. One thing it’s not is a one-night stand. As laboratories contemplate using digital pathology for primary diagnosis in the wake of the FDA’s approval nearly two years ago, it’s become abundantly clear that while digital pathology might seem to promise easy pleasure, it’s actually as complicated as keeping multiple spouses happy. Think Jacob, Rachel, and Leah. Think “Big Love.”
February 2019—A forgotten creditor. A poor relation. An envious rival. In the theater, one of these characters often emerges from the woodwork, ready to supply a plot twist just when the protagonist is riding highest.
February 2019—Two breast cases—one of apocrine carcinoma and androgen receptor overexpression and another of metastatic ER-positive cancer and an ESR1 mutation—were the focus of a molecular oncology tumor board session at CAP18.
February 2019—Mass spectrometry has been proved to be an essential and powerful platform for clinical diagnostics. The value it adds to health care has increased steadily in the past decade.
February 2019—In one case, Dr. Ribes found herself intrigued by structures in a patient’s urine cytology specimen. A 36-year-old man from the Republic of Congo had developed dysuria, increased urinary frequency, and terminal hematuria. What they found in the Pap stain in cytology, she said, were large purple structures with the knob at the end.
February 2019—Lung cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed malignancy and results in the most cancer-related deaths each year in the United States, but actionable aberrations in EGFR, ALK, ROS1, and other oncogenes are improving outcomes for a subset of patients.
February 2019—When Tania Hong, BS, MT, joined the University of Vermont Medical Center five years ago, as network director of operations for pathology and laboratory medicine, she interviewed all of the supervisors in her laboratory. She asked what they saw as their biggest challenges.
February 2019—Practice consolidation and complexity, Web-based and cloud computing, and artificial intelligence. That and more is what writer Valerie Neff Newitt asked six AP-LIS companies about recently. Here is what they had to say. The profiles of their AP information systems are in the Anatomic pathology product guide, along with those of 16 other companies.
February 2019—Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes, or LOINC, is a universal code system for identifying laboratory and clinical observations. LOINC provides unique numeric codes that identify the type of in vitro diagnostic test with defined attributes including component, property, time, system, scale, and method.
February 2017—In a context where the lack of drugs against resistant bacterial pathogens will continue and antimicrobial prescriptions are highly complex, effective antibiotic stewardship programs are strongly needed. In the U.S., the CDC and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services highly recommend, while the Joint Commission requires, that all hospitals and nursing care centers have antimicrobial stewardship programs, effective January 2017.
