NCCN Guidelines® Insights - Systemic Mastocytosis, Version 3.2024
The NCCN Guidelines for Systemic Mastocytosis provide evidence- and consensus-based recommendations for the diagnosis and comprehensive care of patients with systemic mastocytosis. The multidisciplinary panel of experts convenes at least once a year to review requested changes to the guidelines from both internal and external entities as well as to discuss data on existing and new therapies. These NCCN Guidelines Insights focus on some of the recent updates to the guidelines.

Updates to Treatment of Recurrent/Metastatic Head and Neck Cancers
For patients with widely metastatic head and neck cancer, the goal is palliation or prolongation of life. Recent studies show that immunotherapy provides a reasonable treatment option for patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. This presentation will discuss new and emerging treatment options to optimize outcomes for these patients.

Updates in the Management of Small Cell Lung Cancer
For many years, platinum plus etoposide regimens had been recommended for patients with extensive stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC); however, the preferred regimens for extensive stage SCLC now include immune checkpoint inhibitors, either atezolizumab or durvalumab, plus platinum plus etoposide.

High-Risk Prevention Programs: Identifying Services for High-Risk Patients
The field of risk identification is advancing rapidly through harnessing big data. Understanding this topic is extremely important to help oncology practices understand the data needed to calculate risk and strategies to design successful programs that allow patients to receive appropriate screening and opportunities for early intervention.

The Evolving Role of Advanced Practice Providers in Oncology Care
Education on this topic is necessary and timely, particularly as the use of advanced practice providers (APPs) is rapidly expanding. There are a variety of models that practices can use to assign work and allocate resources; however, underutilization can result in employee satisfaction issues, high burnout, and wasted resources. This activity provides guidance and best practices on utilization of APPs.

Successful Team Care Models: Allocation of Responsibilities and Team Metrics
Many care teams struggle to find the right allocation of responsibilities to optimize oncology care team efficiencies. It can be beneficial for oncology care teams to learn from examples of how cancer centers have successfully redesigned care teams and re-allocated responsibilities to decrease provider burnout and provide more efficient, high-quality care.

Collection and Utilization of Sex/Sex Characteristics, Sexual Orientation, and Gender Identity (SSOGI) Data
Sex/sex characteristics, sexual orientation, and gender identity (SSOGI) data is integral to understanding disparities in cancer prevention, screening, diagnosis, and care. With this information, barriers to equitable care for sexual and gender minority cancer patients can be addressed.

Balancing Inpatient and Outpatient Oncology Care
As cancer centers respond to the external pressures to move more oncology care to the outpatient setting, it is important to understand the factors driving these changes and the benefits and challenges in balancing inpatient and outpatient oncology care. Safely providing high intensity oncology care in the outpatient setting can improve inpatient bed access, help reduce healthcare costs, and improve patient satisfaction.
