Ovary Part 6
In part 6 of our ovarian cancer series, we discuss germ cell tumors and sex cord stromal tumors, including surgical decision-making and adjuvant treatment recommendations.
Ovary Part 5
In this episode, we will discuss the nuances of workup and management of less common epithelial ovarian cancers, including clear cell, endometrioid, mucinous, and low grade serous carcinomas, borderline tumors, and carcinosarcomas.
Ovary Part 4
This is the fourth of seven episodes covering ovarian cancer. In this episode, we discuss the management of recurrent, platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian cancer. Join us to explore the prognosis of PROC, recommendations for systemic chemotherapy, the role of bevacizumab, the updates to FDA approval for PARPi use, and options for targeted therapies.
Ovary Part 3
This is the third of seven episodes covering ovarian cancer. In this episode, we discuss the management of recurrent, platinum-sensitive epithelial ovarian cancer. Join us to learn how to detect recurrence, preferred systemic therapy regimens, and the use of targeted agents.
Ovary Part 2
This is the second of seven episodes covering ovarian cancer. In this episode, we discuss the management of advanced stage epithelial ovarian cancer. Join us to learn about the importance of optimal debulking, options for up-front treatment, the utility of bevacizumab, and the use of PARP inhibitors.
Ovary Part 1
This is the first of seven episodes covering ovarian cancer. In this episode, we discuss diagnosis and management of early stage epithelial ovarian cancer. Join us to learn about epidemiology, classification, diagnostic tools, surgery and staging, and adjuvant treatment of early EOC.
Uterine Cytotoxic Therapies
In our second chemotherapy episode, we will explore some commonly used cytotoxic therapies in gynecologic oncology. Specifically, we will discuss in detail mechanisms of action, side effects, and other considerations of individual cytotoxic agents used in the treatment of uterine cancers.
Chemotherapy principles
In our first chemotherapy episode, we will explore the fundamental principles of tumor growth and chemotherapy. We will discuss tumor growth kinetics, theory behind combination chemotherapy and dosing cycles, pharmacokinetics, how to calculate doses for certain agents, and how to determine whether a therapy regimen is effective for a patient.
Uterine Cancer: Part 4
In our fourth episode on uterine cancer, we discuss uterine carcinosarcoma as the last subtype of endometrial cancer. We then discuss uterine sarcomas, including nuances of staging and treatment of different subtypes of uterine sarcoma in both the up-front and recurrent setting.
Uterine Cancer: Part 3
This is the third episode in a four-part series on uterine cancer. In this episode, we discuss the diagnosis and treatment of patients with advanced and recurrent endometrial cancer. We discuss surgery, standard of care chemotherapy, the nuances of radiation and chemoradiation therapy, as well as targeted therapies for advanced and recurrent EC.
