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.

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

Triage for HPV screen-positives gets a boost

June 2024—When it comes to detecting cervical precancer (CIN3), p16/Ki-67 dual stain testing cuts down on the number of colposcopies compared with using Pap cytology to triage HPV-positive patients. “Using cytology [for triage], you need to do about 32 colposcopies to identify one cervical precancer [CIN3]. If you were to switch to dual stain, it cuts it in half,” says Thomas Lorey, MD, senior consultant and former director of laboratory services for Kaiser Permanente Northern California, from which much of the data underpinning the guidelines on cervical cancer screening and management have been collected. Dr. Lorey and others are coauthors of new clinical management dual stain test recommendations, released in March by the member organizations of the Enduring Consensus Cervical Cancer Screening and Management Guidelines effort. The new recommendations address only the Roche CINtec Plus Cytology test, which detects both p16 and Ki-67 and was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2020.

How well does ChatGPT do on pathology questions?

June 2024—Since ChatGPT sprang on the scene a year and a half ago, debate and concern about the OpenAI chatbot and how closely it can replicate human abilities have been widespread, as have thoughts on how to translate AI-based applications into clinical practice.

How rapid autopsies bridge clinical care and research

June 2024—Meagan Chambers, MD, MS, MSc, feels like she has signed on for a life of being on call for 2 AM autopsies, and she says nothing could please her more. She is a neuropathology fellow at the University of Washington and does many of the rapid autopsies that make possible a range of human research that would otherwise be limited or out of reach.

LGBT+ health: changes, challenges in cytopathology

June 2024—Screening in transgender men with cervices and in transgender women with neovaginas was the focus of a CAP23 session that highlighted screening recommendations and morphologic challenges such as detecting high-grade dysplasia in a background of atrophy (trans men) and dysplasia risks (trans women)—and EHR-related improvements for both.

Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease

June 2024—Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease, which is driven by a cytokine storm with an unknown cause, is a difficult diagnosis and one that’s often delayed, owing to the disease’s rarity and nonspecific symptoms. “Patients often bounce around for months, or even years, to different specialties, based on how they present, before they are diagnosed,” said Jadee Neff, MD, PhD, assistant professor of pathology, Duke University Medical Center, in a CAP TODAY webinar in February made possible by a special educational grant from Recordati Rare Diseases.

Climate of concern over fungal infections

May 2024—If anything keeps Arturo Casadevall, MD, PhD, lying awake at night, it’s the frogs. And the bats. Also, the patients (relatively few, at least for now) who are affected by invasive fungal diseases. Dr. Casadevall is a microbiologist and infectious diseases expert in the Johns Hopkins Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Medicine, and the Bloomberg School of Public Health, where he’s a professor of medicine and chairs the Department of Molecular Microbiology and Immunology. In his waking hours, he looks deeply and broadly at the natural world and how the disturbing growth of fungal infections might impact the medical world. Though the arrows haven’t hit the bull’s-eye, they seem to be flying in that direction, says Dr. Casadevall, who has written widely on this topic, including “Immunity to Invasive Fungal Diseases.” In a recent interview with CAP TODAY, Dr. Casadevall spoke about how he and others in the field are thinking about how medicine might respond to this potential threat.

Core lab efficiencies in monoclonal gammopathy testing

May 2024—Many laboratories have brought order to chaos in test ordering by launching initiatives to do so, for cost and staff savings and patient care benefits. TriCore is one—it set its sights on orders for monoclonal gammopathies.
