Drs. Boris Kuvshinoff II and Renuka Iyer will respond to questions Tuesday, March 20, at 6pm EDT
Two experts from Roswell Park Cancer Institute (RPCI) will respond to questions in an upcoming CancerConnect Web Chat on the topic Treatment Options for Patients with Liver Cancer. Boris Kuvshinoff II, MD, MBA and Renuka Iyer, MD, Co-Directors of RPCI’s Liver and Pancreas Tumor Center, will give a presentation on different approaches to treating liver cancer beginning at 6 pm EDT Tuesday, March 20, after which they’ll share information in a 30-minute Q&A session.
Both recognized experts in pancreatic and liver cancers, Drs. Kuvshinoff and Iyer are actively involved in clinical care and research, leading innovative studies on liver cancer and other gastrointestinal cancers.
Each year in the United States, more than 28,000 people are diagnosed with primary liver cancer. Although long-term survival with liver cancer remains poor, advances in surgery, other liver-directed therapies, and targeted systemic therapies are all contributing to improved outcomes. In addition, advances in supportive care have made liver cancer treatment more tolerable, leading to improved quality of life. Understanding treatment options and how and when to access new and innovative treatment options available through clinical trials is essential for achieving the best outcomes from liver cancer treatment.
