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.

Program Learning Objectives

• Learn the rationale for combining radiation therapy with different types of immunotherapy, as well as the factors that need to be considered as they may affect the efficacy of the treatment, including the radiation dose and field, and sequencing of radiation with immunotherapy.
• Gain an understanding of the current status of knowledge of the mechanisms of action of combinations of immunotherapeutic agents and radiation that can inform treatment decisions.
• Examples of specific clinical situations and clinical cases will be discussed.
