NCCN Guidelines® Insights - Distress Management, Version 2.2023
All patients experience some level of distress associated with a cancer diagnosis and the effects of the disease and its treatment regardless of the stage of disease. Clinically significant levels of distress occur in a subset of patients, and identification and treatment of distress are of utmost importance. These NCCN Guidelines Insights describe updates to the NCCN Distress Thermometer and Problem List, and to the treatment algorithms for patients with trauma- and stressor-related disorders.

Management of Recurrent or Metastatic Cervical Cancer
The systemic therapy section of the NCCN Guidelines for Cervical Cancer has continuously added new therapy options over the past few years to reflect the new approvals. Knowledge in this topic will guide the practitioners in appropriately prioritizing these new treatment options to further improve patient outcomes.

New First-Line Systemic Treatment Options for Metastatic Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Clinicians should be aware of the data supporting the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors, including nivolumab, in patients with various presentations of esophageal or esophagogastric junction cancers to identify the patients most likely to benefit from this treatment strategy.

Radiation Therapy for Metastatic Brain Tumors
Whole-brain radiation therapy was historically the mainstay of treatment for brain metastases but has fallen out of favor in clinical practice over the last several decades. Strategies to promote cognitive preservation in patients with brain metastases is an area of active investigation. Clinicians need to remain up to date on these strategies.

Hereditary/Familial Ovarian Cancer: Testing Principles and Risk Management
Studies suggest a benefit of risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO) on breast cancer risk in carriers of a BRCA1/2 pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) variant, but the magnitude of the effect is not well-understood, and evidence is mixed regarding age at which RRSO should be undertaken and the specific P/LP variant (BRCA1 vs. BRCA2) carried. More data are needed regarding the efficacy of salpingectomy without oophorectomy in reducing the risk for ovarian cancer in carriers of a BRCA1/2 P/LP variant.

What is Biomarker Testing, and Why Is It Important?
Practitioners need to keep abreast of developments in molecular testing in order to educate patients about their testing results and potentially identify patients that should be tested. The fundamental information about biomarker testing presented during this session should assist participants to better understand the content presented throughout the Biomarkers Congress.

Evaluating Immune Checkpoint Inhibition Response Biomarkers
Targeting the anti-tumor immune response has become a widely used strategy for the therapy of patients with advanced solid tumors, but not all patients respond, and immune-related side effects plus the high cost of these therapies increase the need for effective biomarkers to ensure that the immune checkpoint inhibitors are used in patients with the best chance of success. Clinicians need to be aware of the assays that are most appropriate to use based on the tumor type and the pitfalls of each testing technology.

Clinical Scenario #1: Applying Biomarkers in Risk Stratification of Localized Prostate Cancer
To provide optimal patient care, clinicians need to be well informed about the factors affecting the selection of the appropriate tests, the nuances of analyzing and interpreting complex test results in order to select the most appropriate treatment for their patients, and how to communicate with patients about the results.
