Join SITC and a panel of experts for an afternoon of in-depth education on all aspects of toxicity management. FREE for healthcare professionals, students, patients and patient advocates.

The focus on toxicities associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors should be of interest to practitioners in the community setting and to nurses and HCPs who work directly with patients.

The 2024 Advances in Cancer Immunotherapy™ series is supported, in part, through independent medical education grants from AstraZeneca, Bristol Myers Squibb, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Corp., a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc.  (MSD), and Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation (supporters as of March 22, 2024).

Program Details

Target Audience

The Advances in Cancer Immunotherapy™ (ACI) programs aim to reach practicing clinical oncologists, nurses, nurse practitioners, advanced practitioners, pharmacists, emergency physicians, and other allied health professionals who wish to learn the basic principles of cancer immunotherapy and the most up-to-date clinical data for these treatments, in a multitude of disease states/therapeutic areas, in order to inform and integrate into their own clinical practice. In-training oncologists and hospital administrators will also find the program beneficial.

Case Study Submission Information

As part of the program, registrants are encouraged to submit case studies for expert review during the case study panel concluding the program. If you are interested in taking advantage of this opportunity, please review and sign the linked case study guidelines, and return your case study and signed guidelines to education@sitcancer.org.

Program Learning Objectives

  • Identify appropriate clinical management of common immune-related adverse events resulting from cancer immunotherapy treatments, including immune checkpoint inhibitors and cell therapies.

  • Outline best practices for multidisciplinary management of patients receiving cancer immunotherapy treatment.

  • Describe management approaches for difficult or refractory immune-related adverse events.
