Advances in Cancer Immunotherapy

The ACI programs aim to reach practicing clinical oncologists, advanced practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, emergency physicians, and other allied health professionals who wish to learn the basic principles of cancer immunotherapy and the most up-to-date clinical data for these treatments, in a multitude of disease states/therapeutic areas, in order to inform and integrate into their own clinical practice. In-training oncologists and hospital administrators will also find the program beneficial.

• Overview of common approaches to cancer immunotherapy and their related mechanisms
• Timely updates on the latest clinical advances in the field, including data from recent scientific meetings and clinical trials
• Dedicated opportunities for clinicians to ask questions and receive direction on difficult cases
• Strategies for addressing the practical barriers to implementing immunotherapy (operations, reimbursement and management of emerging toxicities)

SITC has partnered with the Association of Cancer Care Centers (ACCC) and the Advanced Practitioner Society for Hematology and Oncology (APSHO) to provide a comprehensive program providing critical information to incorporate immunotherapy into clinical practice.
