After this activity, participants will be able to:
- Recall new approaches to pre- and post-FDA approval for dosing and scheduling of anti-cancer agents;
- Recognize the therapeutic ratio of novel agents and approaches to define dose reductions that maintain efficacy;
- State the clinical effects of novel immunotherapeutic agents, including novel checkpoint inhibitors, bispecific antibodies, and novel cellular therapies;
- Identify how to assess patient suitability for participation in ongoing and upcoming cancer clinical trials and projects;
- Cite the relevant pharmacologic and biologic effects of novel anti-cancer agents through the use of blood and tissue samples as well as standard and novel imaging approaches, including novel PET tracer imaging and circulating tumor DNA assays;
- Discuss the current science related to radioligand therapy and available agents;

DAVID RUBENSTEIN FORUM
The David Rubenstein Forum combines a variety of spaces, both formal and informal, large and small, calm and animated, focused and diffuse, scheduled and spontaneous. Its ten-story tower features vibrant and distinct “neighborhoods.” For example, the third and fourth floors are home to Friedman Hall, a 285-seat auditorium optimized for spoken word, including keynote speeches, invited-speaker addresses, and select performances; these floors and other neighborhoods are connected by a two-story lounge. Meeting rooms on the eighth and ninth floors feature premium furnishings, finishes, and equipment, such as the Peter May Boardroom, a tiered meeting space that seats over 70. The Rubenstein Forum’s unique position on the Midway allows for expansive views toward the campus and surrounding communities as well as downtown Chicago and Lake Michigan.
