CME

Host: Sagar Lonial, MD, FACP Guest: Caitlin Costello, MD "Bispecific Antibodies: A New Frontier in the Care of Patients With Refractory Multiple Myeloma” is a multiepisodic CME series exploring the role of bispecific antibodies for the treatment of heavily pretreated relapsed myeloma. Join our experts as they discuss the rationale for using these agents in the treatment of myeloma, strategies to monitor and manage treatment-related adverse events, and the pivotal data leading to the approval of these agents for relapsed myeloma.

Host: Heidi M. Munger Clary, MD, MPH Guest: Jay Salpekar, MD, FANPA A crucial aspect of epilepsy care that often goes underappreciated is the intersection of epilepsy and depression. Join Drs. Munger Clary and Salpekar, leading experts in the field, as they raise awareness about the high prevalence of comorbid mental health disorders, particularly depression, among epilepsy patients. Together, they explore the bidirectional relationship between epilepsy and depression, emphasizing the importance of early detection and comprehensive treatment. They’ll also cover implantable therapies, specifically vagal nerve stimulation devices, as potential tools to manage both epilepsy and depression.

Host: Mary Katherine Cheeley, PharmD, BCPS, CLS, FNLA Guest: Andrew Keaveny, MD Guest: Don Rockey, MD Extrahepatic manifestations of decompensated cirrhosis confer significant additional risks for mortality, and a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals is involved in the care of these patients. This program will discuss two critical aspects of advanced liver disease: variceal bleeding and hepatorenal syndrome (HRS). These complications pose significant challenges in the management of patients with cirrhosis. Clinically-significant portal hypertension, identified by a hepatic venous pressure gradient >10mmHg, predicts the development of variceal hemorrhage, hepatic encephalopathy, ascites, and HRS, all hallmarks of decompensation and multi-organ failure. Faculty will discuss a common patient presentation to highlight best practices in evidence-based care of patients with variceal bleeding and HRS/acute kidney injury.

Host: W. Brian Gibler, MD, FACEP, FACC, FAHA Host: Natalie Kreitzer, MD, MS Host: Adrian R. Parry-Jones, FRCP, PhD Host: Rhonda Cadena, MD, FNCS, FCCM Join experts and explore an exciting new frontier of care for patients on direct oral anticoagulants who present with an intracranial hemorrhage. Three factors can be used to optimize treatment: emerging data on anticoagulation reversal, artificial intelligence utilization, and evidence-based ABC care bundling. Learn how these developments transform clinical practice, deepen institutional expertise, and ultimately improve patient outcomes.

Host: Mikhail Kosiborod, MD Guest: Biff F. Palmer, MD Delve into refining the management of hyperkalemia in CKD patients and their associated comorbidities, striking a delicate balance that preserves guideline-recommended RAASi therapy. Join Dr. Biff Palmer and Dr. Mikhail Kosiborod as they guide the exploration of novel potassium binders for optimal hyperkalemia management, all while upholding the integrity of established treatment guidelines.

Guest: Carl Danzig, MD Guest: Arshad M. Khanani, MD, MA Dr. Carl Danzig, Director of Vitreoretinal Services and Retina Clinical Research of Rand Eye Institute in Deerfield Beach, Florida, and Dr. Arshad Khanani, Clinical Associate Professor at the University of Nevada in Reno, Nevada, will present key data about anti-VEGF therapies for retinal vein occlusion (RVO). Join the discussion on developing treatment protocols that use current therapies most effectively to improve outcomes and individualized treatment protocols for patients who are nonresponsive to first-line therapies and who require chronic treatment for macular edema.

Host: Scott Kahan, MD, MPH Guest: Ken Fujioka, MD Guest: Carol Wysham, MD Embark on a transformative journey to redefine patient care for individuals with type 2 diabetes by transitioning from the conventional focus on glycemic control to a pioneering obesity-centered approach. Immerse yourself in the expertise of 3 distinguished professionals: Drs. Carol Wysham, Scott Kahan, and Ken Fujioka. These esteemed experts will guide you through the dynamic terrain of weight loss medications, including GLP-1/GIP dual receptor agonists, and provide invaluable insights to elevate and optimize patient outcomes in the realm of type 2 diabetes management.

Host: Jessica Ailani, MD Guest: Dawn C. Buse, PhD Half of the women in the US with migraine are never diagnosed. Of those who are, the journey to effective treatment may last a decade or longer. But newer and more effective targeted treatments are beginning to make a difference. Join Drs. Jessica Ailani and Dawn Buse as they discuss a novel approach to managing migraine and interview a patient whose migraine journey is unfortunately one traversed by many women.

Host: Yelena Janjigian, MD The therapeutic landscape for gastric and gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) cancer is rapidly evolving, with biomarkers directing treatment selection. Recent evidence suggests that the combination of HER2-targeted therapies and immune checkpoint inhibitors has synergistic effects, highlighting the importance of the most recent clinical data regarding first-line treatments for advanced or metastatic G/GEJ cancers and the differentiation between HER2-positive and -negative tumors. In addition to HER2, Claudin 18 splice variant 2 (CLDN18.2) has emerged as a new biomarker for targeted treatment. Multiple factors should be considered in first-line treatment selection, including biomarker positivity, performance status, and potential toxicity. In this program, topics presented by expert faculty will illustrate the biomarker-related clinicopathologic features of G/GEJ cancers as well as how to incorporate the latest evidence to individualize first-line treatment for patients with G/GEJ cancers.
