This program is designed to address the needs of a community practice physician and includes disease site reviews, interactive case-based discussions, a strategic dialogue with the ASTRO CEO and a radiation oncology practice overview.

This presentation is aimed at residents in advanced years of training and attending physicians seeking a practical update on the management of patients with soft tissue sarcoma.

Retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPS), a rare subset of soft tissue sarcomas, account for 10-15% of these cases and are distinguished by their substantial size, infiltrative nature, and proximity to vital anatomical structures.

Some patients with soft tissue sarcomas may be inoperable due to medical comorbidity or might decline radical or amputative surgeries due to undesirable functional outcomes.

The field of cancer is a rapidly evolving field with new treatment approaches moving to clinic on a daily basis. Radiation Oncology is no different. It is extremely difficult for a practicing clinician to stay abreast of new developments in cancer care.

Recent landmark studies in melanoma, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), head and neck cancer (HNC) and sarcoma have established neoadjuvant immune therapy as a potential standard of care for patients with locally advanced cancers.

This presentation reviews the role of radiation therapy in the management of non-spine bone metastases, focusing on patient evaluation, treatment intent, dose selection, and integration with systemic and surgical care.

This program is designed to address the needs of a community practice physician and includes disease site reviews, interactive case-based discussions, a strategic dialogue with the ASTRO CEO and a radiation oncology practice overview.

This activity reviews the literature for key aspects of soft tissue sarcoma management in adults. The goal is to provide an evidence base to guide clinicians on practice for management of these rare tumors.

There are many ongoing advances in the context of radiation therapy delivery for patients with primary soft tissue sarcoma of the extremity/trunk with emerging practice-changing clinical research and new treatment options, some of which are not yet standard of care.
