NCCN Monthly Tumor Boards: Esophageal & Esophagogastric Junction Cancers: Postoperative Therapy in Patients with Residual Disease
NCCN Monthly Tumor Boards: Esophageal & Esophagogastric Junction Cancers: Postoperative Therapy in Patients with Residual Disease
November 9, 2022
Esophageal cancer patients with residual disease following preoperative chemoradiation and complete resection remain at high risk for recurrence, which is associated with poor prognosis. The components of optimal postoperative management for these patients has not been established in randomized trials. Available evidence for the use of postoperative chemoradiation and postoperative chemotherapy comes from prospective randomized trials involving patients with gastric cancer. Optimal treatment for resectable esophageal/esophagogastric junction (EGJ) cancers requires clinician awareness of current evidence regarding the recurrence and survival rates associated with various combined modality approaches and targeted therapies. Clinicians should regularly evaluate recent clinical trial data to make informed decisions on the most appropriate treatment plan, particularly as new targeted therapies, as well as new indications for existing targeted therapies, become FDA-approved.
This educational program is designed to meet the educational needs of physicians/oncologists, nurse practitioners, nurses, physician assistants, pharmacists, and other health care professionals who manage patients with cancer.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Following this activity, participants should be able to:
Discuss therapeutic options for the postoperative management of patients with esophageal or esophagogastric junction (EGJ) cancers.
Review the current evidence for use of nivolumab in patients with completely resected esophageal or EGJ tumors with residual pathologic disease who have received preoperative chemoradiation.
Describe emerging strategies to optimize postoperative management for patients with completely resected esophageal or EJG tumors and residual pathologic disease.

November 14, 2022 @ 6:45 am - 3:30 pm
Global Roadmap for Healthy Longevity Report Summit: Enabling a Virtuous Cycle for Healthy Longevity in the U.S. a meeting co-organized by the National Academy of Medicine and AARP
Global aging provides an unprecedented opportunity and challenge. Population aging has been viewed as burdensome to society and families, costly to governments, and a driver of economic decline. But population aging as a burden is not inevitable. Emerging bodies of research highlight the strengths of older people and their many contributions to families and societies through paid work, caregiving, and volunteering. These contributions could expand exponentially if barriers to full participation in society are removed.
The National Academy of Medicine’s Global Roadmap for Healthy Longevity report provides guidance to societies on how to create more years of good health through strengthening their social infrastructure, physical environment, health systems, and opportunities for education, work, and retirement. Good health in turn, increases social, human, and economic capital.
The NAM is holding a one-day symposium in Washington DC to discuss how societies can take the recommendations from the report and reap the benefits of global aging by creating healthy longevity, defined in the report as “the state in which years in good health approach the biological life span, with physical, cognitive, and social functioning, enabling well-being across populations.” The meeting will explore enablers of healthy longevity from multiple perspectives. Speakers and panelists will include nationally known experts from news and media, policy, research, and business who will discuss possibilities of overcoming barriers to healthy longevity.
Attendees can register to attend in person or via webcast

NASEM: How Nutrition and Health Change Over a Person's Life Course
NASEM: How Nutrition and Health Change Over a Person's Life Course
November 16, 2022
This workshop, organized by the Standing Committee on Evidence Synthesis and Communications in Diet and Chronic Disease Relationships, will highlight the fact that people do not remain the same throughout the courses of their lives. Instead, from before birth through early childhood, adolescence, and different stages of adulthood, a person's biology, behaviors, social situations, environments, and other factors evolve over time. These in turn can affect in many complex ways a person's nutritional requirements and the resulting health outcomes that may take years to manifest. This workshop will feature leaders in their fields discussing such life course changes, state-of-the-art research methods and approaches that can untangle life course complexity, and different dietary recommendations over a person's life course.

Coccidioidomycosis, or “Valley fever”, is a fungal disease caused by inhalation of Coccidioides spores from the soil. This fungus, generally found in arid environments in the southwestern US and Latin America, can cause severe debilitating, and sometimes fatal, illness in humans and animals. Despite the public health burden of this disease, a lack of research investment has led to limited options for treatment and control. This workshop will convene experts to discuss the epidemiology and public health impact of Valley Fever, as well as opportunities to facilitate development of diagnostics, therapeutics, and vaccines.

November 17, 2022 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
December 2022, rings in the fifteenth anniversary of the Annual Conference of the Science of Dissemination and Implementation (D&I) in Health. The occasion is an opportunity to celebrate years of convening, in-person and more recently, virtually, and through song; reflect on the context of the meeting and how the D&I community has grown the field through scientific contribution and partnership; as well as reexamine the last fifteen years of cancer implementation science and what factors might shape the next fifteen years. This webinar discusses the state of implementation science as demarcated by the Annual Conference, shifts in scientific direction and trends for innovation, and expert insight into areas for growth to support the research ultimately, positively impacting health outcomes.
Coccidioidomycosis, or “Valley fever”, is a fungal disease caused by inhalation of Coccidioides spores from the soil. This fungus, generally found in arid environments in the southwestern US and Latin America, can cause severe debilitating, and sometimes fatal, illness in humans and animals. Despite the public health burden of this disease, a lack of research investment has led to limited options for treatment and control. This workshop will convene experts to discuss the epidemiology and public health impact of Valley Fever, as well as opportunities to facilitate development of diagnostics, therapeutics, and vaccines.

1.6 million people in the U.S. died as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Health system leaders discuss lessons learned and what’s next for health system transformation.
The National Academy of Medicine’s Leadership Consortium: Collaboration for a Learning Health System will host a webinar on November 30, 2022 from 11:30 am – 1:00 pm EST to discuss key findings from the recently released NAM Special Publication, Emerging Stronger from COVID-19: Priorities for Health System Transformation, and related next steps. Emerging Stronger presents the findings from detailed assessments conducted by leaders of 9 health system sectors on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their sectors. A special concluding chapter identified opportunities for system-wide health transformation imperatives related to common challenges across the sectors.
This webinar will highlight three major issues – systemic fragmentation, perverse incentives, and structural inequities – that hindered each sector’s COVID-19 response and continue to pose barriers to health system transformation. A panel of experts who authored the assessments will speak to how these challenges manifested in the sectors they represent and innovations worth keeping/expanding on moving forward.
The second portion of the webinar will focus on next steps, specifically the formation of a national Commission to address the cross-sector challenges listed above. A second expert panel will provide reactions to the Commission’s vision and mission, drawing on the perspectives of the sectors they represent.
This effort is part of the Leadership Consortium’s larger aim: realizing the vision of a learning health system—a new approach that transforms our current system to one that spans the continuum of health and well-being, is driven by financial incentive reform, and has health equity at its core.
11:30 am ET | Emerging Stronger from COVID-19: Priorities for Health System Transformation
Speakers will offer remarks on the Emerging Stronger sector assessments; three cross-sector challenges that impeded a swift, coordinated, and effective COVID-19 response; and innovations worth keeping/expanding on moving forward.
