Meeting The Needs of the Veteran Patient with Renal Cell Carcinoma

July 19, 2025

Description


FREE TO ATTEND for VA and community healthcare professionals

Join us on Saturday, July 19, 2025 for AVAHO's regional meeting focusing on Renal Cell Carcinoma!

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a relatively common malignancy amongst Veterans. Management of metastatic RCC poses complex issues that require multidisciplinary teams to optimize care for Veterans. The treatment of metastatic RCC has evolved considerably over the last several years with multiple treatment options that must be considered. Given the complexity of management, the overarching goal of this meeting is to update the attendees on the latest data and clinical trials related to metastatic RCC management. In addition to didactic lectures, case presentations and a roundtable discussion will reinforce key concepts.

Regional meetings are a one-day, locally-focused meeting for AVAHO members and clinicians serving veterans with cancer and hematological disorders. All disciplines in the cancer care process are welcome.

This is an IN-PERSON event.

Federal employees wishing to attend (and are not giving a presentation), can attend the AVAHO regional meeting without seeking approval from their site, VISN, or program office so long as:

  1. They are attending on annual leave (AL) or off duty time 
  2. They are using personal funds to travel

This event is CE-eligible.
