Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) – Shared decision-making. Part 1: Patient journey

In this first episode of a two-part podcast series focusing on neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), gastroenterologist Dr Mohid S Khan and NET patient Sally Jenkins discuss the importance of communication and collaboration during consultations. This can include how to make a patient feel as comfortable and in control as possible, as well as recognising their goals and concerns.     The speakers share their real-life experiences of what makes a good consultation, from the perspectives of both a patient and a physician. They also explore the importance of support networks, individualising treatment, and the impact of NET and NET treatment options in daily life.     NETs are complex, rare diseases. Optimal management and treatment requires early diagnosis, shared decision-making, and timely referral. Are you aware of how healthcare practitioners and patients can share decision- making? Or the recent data on how patients prefer to receive treatment?     In this first episode of a two-part podcast series, Dr Mohid S Khan and NET patient Sally Jenkins discuss shared decision-making in NET consultations and ways to help the patient in their journey.    Prefer to watch and listen? Watch the video and download the full transcript on the COR2ED website https://cor2ed.com/net-connect/programmes/net-shared-decision-making/ Watch the full video on YouTube https://youtu.be/YgqrEnSePWg Watch the highlights video on YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPMVLjPLv8k   Follow us on social media  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/cor2ed-net-connect   X: https://x.com/net_connectinfo     This content is intended for healthcare professionals only.  The medical experts in this podcast are expressing their own views and not those of COR2ED, Supporters or their institution.

The use of IO in unresectable HCC: Part 1

In the first of this 4-part podcast series on HCC, Dr Rachna Shroff and Oncology Brothers Drs Rohit and Rahul Gosain explore the use of IO (immunotherapy) in unresectable HCC (uHCC) and take a deep dive into the different treatment options first-line focusing on IO and IO based combinations. Topics include:    Current first-line systemic treatment options for uHCC  Efficacy and safety of IO and IO combinations including practical aspects of identifying and managing immune-mediated AEs  How to select between the two first-line IO-based treatment options based on clinical factors and practical considerations     Key clinical takeaways: Two first-line IO and IO-based combinations are approved for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), with ongoing advancements shaping the treatment landscape  Clinical trials in newly diagnosed unresectable HCC patients have validated the effectiveness of IO plus anti-VEGF (atezolizumab + bevacizumab, IMbrave150) and dual IO (tremelimumab + durvalumab, HIMALAYA) approaches, establishing the proof of principle for these strategies  Landmark analysis is critical in IO-based treatments due to the delayed and continued separation of survival curves. Notably, the STRIDE regimen ( single tremelimumab regular interval durvalumab) shows one in five patients achieving five-year survival in long-term follow-up  IO and IO-based regimens for unresectable HCC are generally well-tolerated, with immune-related adverse effects manageable using steroids when necessary.  In clinical practice, treatment choice should be individualized, taking into account factors such as potential side effects and logistical considerations, including the frequency of hospital visits      Follow us on social media:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/hcc-connect   X: https://x.com/hccconnectinfo     This content is intended for healthcare professionals only.   The medical experts in this podcast are expressing their own views and not those of COR2ED, Supporters or their institution.

BRAF-mutated CRC: testing to treatment

Experts Prof. Sebastian Stintzing and Dr Thomas Winder discuss the significance of BRAF mutations in colorectal cancer (CRC), and the testing strategies and available treatments for these patients.     They consider the prevalence and types of BRAF mutations in CRC patients and highlight the poor prognosis for these patients. The experts also cover the optimal time and methods for testing for BRAF mutations, as well as the targeted therapies currently available for BRAF-mutated CRC.     Several key trials are discussed, including the BEACON trial which resulted in encorafenib plus cetuximab being the standard of care in the second-line setting for patients with BRAF mutated CRC.     The discussion also looks at future studies including the BREAKWATER trial, which will provide important information about encorafenib plus cetuximab in the first-line for these patients, as well as the SEAMARK trial which will show the effects of adding immunotherapy to this combination.      Key clinical takeaways:  BRAF mutations occur in around 10% of colorectal cancer patients and patients harbouring these have aggressive disease and a poor prognosis  Targeted therapies are available for BRAF-mutated CRC so it is important to test patients early in their disease preferably with next-generation sequencing  Encorafenib plus cetuximab are established as the standard of care in the second-line setting for BRAF-mutated CRC  Doublet chemotherapy plus anti-VEGF is currently the preferred treatment in the first-line. The BREAKWATER trial will determine whether the combination of encorafenib plus cetuximab is a suitable first-line treatment option    Would you prefer to watch the experts in conversation?

Treatment optimization in mCRC: third-line and beyond

Treatment of advanced colorectal cancer should be considered a continuum of care and patients should be offered as many life prolonging therapies as possible.  Do you know how to sequence later line therapies in metastatic colorectal cancer? In this podcast, gastrointestinal oncologists Dr Thomas Winder (Austria and Switzerland) and Dr Mark Lewis (USA) discuss the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer, third line and beyond.  They discuss the sequence of later line treatments regorafenib, TAS-102, bevacizumab and fruquintinib and refer to key clinical trials such as SUNLIGHT, CORRECT, RECOURSE, FRESCO-2 and ReDOS.  They emphasise the importance of balancing treatment efficacy whilst considering adverse event profiles to maintain the patient’s quality of life.  The experts also discuss biomarkers used in a number of molecularly selected trials such as HER2 in the HERACLES (trastuzumab plus lapatininb), MOUNTAINEER (tucatinib plus trastuzumab) and DESTINY-CRC02 (trastuzumab deruxtecan) studies and KRAS G12c in the CODEBREAK 300 study (sotorasib plus panitumumab).
