NCCN 2019 Annual Conference, March 21-23 2019, Orlando, Florida

March 4, 2019 By admin Leave a Comment

More than 1,500 cancer care professionals are meeting in Orlando, Florida, March 21-23, for the NCCN 2019 Annual Conference, presented by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN®)—an alliance of 28 leading cancer centers. The conference offers more than 25 sessions presenting the latest treatment recommendations for lung, breast, prostate, colon, and other cancers, including new and emerging therapies. Other key topics include coordination of care, pain management during an opioid crisis, biosimilars, cancer-associated distress, biomarkers, genetic testing, and appropriate transition to end-of-life care. The keynote session highlights the benefits and challenges of treatment with new and innovative therapies (e.g. CAR T-cell) from the perspective of the patient and the clinicians caring for them.

“Cancer treatment is becoming more complex every day,” said Robert W. Carlson, MD, Chief Executive Officer, NCCN. “It’s increasingly important and valuable for clinicians to stay up-to-date on any new research. The NCCN 2019 Annual Conference focuses on the practical management of patients with cancer, provides updates on NCCN Guidelines, and includes other educational sessions on new treatments, therapies, and trends, and their application in patient care. Clinicians who attend will come away with a better understanding of how their patients can have the best possible outcomes in terms of health, emotional well-being, and overall experience.”

The NCCN 2019 Annual Conference includes learning opportunities for the entire health care team. There is a session titled NCCN Nursing Program: Advancing Oncology Nursing™ on March 20, which includes clinical updates as well as best practices for managing malnutrition and immunotherapy symptom management and patient education. On March 24, the NCCN 2019 Oncology Fellows Program: New Horizons in Quality Cancer Care™ presents treatment considerations for adolescents and young adults with cancer, strategies to promote wellness and prevent burnout, and the latest recommendations for cancer treatments.

The NCCN Oncology Research Program (ORP) will showcase 145 poster presentations on subjects like best practices, pre-clinical oncology, clinical oncology, correlative/genomic, epidemiology/risks, outcomes and health services research, quality improvements, and bioinformatics/IT. The NCCN ORP will also present Young Investigator Awards, with support from the NCCN Foundation®, to some of the most promising early-career researchers in the country.

The exhibition hall features more than 20 advocacy groups representing a range of cancer types and supportive care services. It also includes a reimbursement resource section and a health information technology corner.

The keynote discussion regarding the patient experience with innovative therapies will be moderated by Frederick L. Locke, MD, Moffitt Cancer Center and will feature Jeffrey Backer, MD, FACEP, Emergency Physician and Cancer Survivor and Alix Beaupierre, BSN, RN, OCN, Moffitt Cancer Center. Dr. Locke will then be joined for an emerging issues roundtable that also includes Stefanie Joho, Survivor, Health Advocate, and Consultant; Jennifer Malin, MD, PhD, UnitedHealth Group; John W. Sweetenham, MD, Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah; and Lalan S. Wilfong, MD, Texas Oncology.
