Driving Progress in NNSCC: Integrating Immunotherapy and Novel Targeted Therapies Across the Disease Continuum
Oncology healthcare professionals (HCPs) face unique challenges in managing head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC)—from the complexity of the disease to the need for a multidisciplinary treatment approach. These challenges are exacerbated by the rapid pace of emerging data for new approaches, including expanding the role of immune checkpoint inhibitors. This AMA-accredited program equips HCPs with expert insights and practical strategies to integrate immunotherapy and novel targeted therapies across the HNSCC disease continuum. Stay ahead of evolving treatment paradigms and enhance your ability to deliver effective, team-based care. Provided by Clinical Care Options, LLC.

Unlock a Fresh Perspective on CRSwNP: Investigating Epithelial Cytokines
Amgen and AstraZeneca invite you to explore the source of airway inflammation from a fresh perspective! Join us for an expert-led symposium where we will delve into the airway epithelium and the cytokines it can produce, which have been actively investigated as a source of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Discover emerging data in CRSwNP and how the epithelium can serve as a critical link to CRSwNP.
Speakers: Stella Lee, MD, Director, Brigham Sinus Center Brigham and Women’s Hospital Boston, MA; Christine Franzese, MD Professor of Otolaryngology & Allergy Medical Director University of Missouri Health Care Columbia, MO
