Description:
In this webinar, Antonia Sepulveda provides an overview of the American Society of Clinical Pathology (ASCP), College of American Pathologists (CAP), Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP), and American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO)'s evidence-based practice guideline on molecular marker testing for patients with colorectal carcinoma that identifies opportunities for improving patient outcomes.
The guideline addresses a wide range of molecular markers appropriate for testing in patients with early and advanced colorectal cancer which aids in establishing standard molecular marker testing to help guide targeted therapy decisions and advance personalized care for colorectal cancer patients.
Learning Objectives:
- Discuss the recently published molecular testing guidelines for colorectal cancer.
- Describe current laboratory practice guidelines for the use and performance of molecular testing in the evaluation of colorectal cancer.
- Evaluate prognosis and prediction of response to therapies for the following markers: KRAS, NRAS, BRAF, PIK3CA, PTEN, DNA mismatch repair/microsatellite instability.
