Overview & Learning Objectives
Overview

Join our endometrial cancer (EC) multidisciplinary team as they discuss the latest developments in an exciting era of patient management with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, including important clinical considerations and testing to identify the patients who are most likely to benefit from immunotherapy.

Learning Objectives

After watching this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Evaluate the latest data for PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in the treatment of EC
  • Identify which patients with EC may benefit from treatment with PD-1 inhibitors
  • Summarize the appropriate testing used to assess whether PD-1 inhibitors maybe suitable for patients with EC

Dr Alicia León-Castillo

Netherlands Cancer Institute, Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Alicia León-Castillo was born in Santander, Spain, and received her MD degree from the University of Cantabria, where she also did her Anatomic Pathology Residency. read more

After completing her residency, she pursued a PhD in molecular tumour pathology at Leiden University, focusing on the molecular classification of endometrial cancer. Under the mentorship of Drs Vincent Smit, Carien Creutzberg and Tjalling Bosse, she addressed outstanding issues encountered when interpreting p53 and mismatch repair protein immunohistochemistry stains and POLE exonuclease domain sequencing in endometrial cancers, in order to allow for the assignment of molecular subgroups on individual cases. Within the TransPORTEC consortium, she analyzed the prognostic and predictive value of the molecular classification on patients with high-risk endometrial cancer.

Dr León-Castillo now works in the department of pathology of Antoni van Leeuwenhoek, Netherlands Cancer Institute, in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Dr Alicia León-Castillo discloses: no financial interests/relationships or affiliations in relation to this activity.
