Survival Disparities: Endometrial vs Cervical Cancers’?
+ Overall, mortality rates for endometrial \
cancer are increasing (2% annually,
2008-2018)
+ However, the burden for Black patients
has increased disproportionately and
now represents one of the largest o
racial disparities in cancer settings
Significant racial disparities are also
seen with cervical cancer mortality
rates
Furthermore, Black and Hispanic
women are more likely to be
diagnosed at a later stage

For Discussion
In developing a treatment plan for this
patient, what important factors should the
pharmacist be considering?
What patient-specific factors would you take
into account (eg, genetics, medical history,
current medications)?
What is the role of the pharmacist in patient
education on safety management?
How can the evidence guide us in patient
consultation and clinical decision-making?

Back to Catherine’s Case: Practical Considerations
for Combining Immunotherapy With Chemotherapy

history of abnormal uterine bleeding;
physical examination revealed an enlarged
uterus and tenderness upon palpation

For Discussion
Why was this regimen selected? What is the
mechanism of combining chemo + 10?
How do you manage dosing/scheduling for
this regimen, and how would you plan to
educate the patient on this information?
What strategies would you consider for
patient education on irAEs?
How would you advise the patient if she
experiences colitis after 1 month of
treatment?

Educating Your Patients and Staff About
the Importance of and Access to Clinical Trials
Why is clinical trial participation important?
+ Clinical trials are a key step for translating research into
medicines that can cure illness, slow disease, and improve
QOL for patients
+ Robust participation in clinical trials with diverse enrollment
means a shorter timeline between medical discovery and
patient access to potentially life-changing treatments

Summary and Parting Thoughts:
What Does This Mean for Pharmacists?
+ Biomarker testing is imperative for all + Educate patients and caregivers

+ Different issues may arise with experience these newer modalities
immunotherapy and various — They will ask you questions they
combinations don't ask doctors
— Distinct AE profiles—be prepared > Be prepared
for potential overlapping toxicity,
variable onset timing, and dose
adjustment needs > Know where to direct queries
> Know how to answer
— Prioritize clinical trial enrollment for
all patients with a focus on
increasing diversity
