The ability to personalize treatment for patients with gastric cancer has grown along with the improved understanding of the biologic rationale for therapeutic targeting. In this activity, based on a recent live webcast, an expert panel provides the latest efficacy and safety data for established and emerging therapeutics for gastric cancer including HER2-directed antibody–drug conjugates and addresses practical strategies for choosing treatments based on treatment history, patient preference, performance status, and biomarker status for patients with advanced gastric cancer. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Describe the biologic rationale for therapeutic targeting of gastric cancer, such as HER2 or PD-L1 overexpression, Summarize expert and guideline-based recommendations to accurately test for biomarkers in gastric cancer that can guide appropriate treatment selection, Appraise the latest safety and efficacy data of established and emerging therapeutics for gastric cancer, such as checkpoint inhibitors, novel cytotoxic agents, and HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugates, Select appropriate validated or emerging therapeutic strategies for advanced gastric/GEJ cancers based on treatment history, patient preference, performance status, and biomarker status for patients who have progressed following first-line treatment.
