UW ASPIRE 2027 (Alliance for Support and Prevention of Immune Related Events) is a multidisciplinary educational conference dedicated to improving the prevention, recognition, evaluation, and management of immune-related adverse events (irAEs) associated with cancer immunotherapies. As the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors and other novel cancer therapies continues to expand, healthcare professionals face increasing challenges in identifying and managing toxicities that can affect multiple organ systems and significantly impact patient outcomes.

This hybrid conference brings together oncologists, subspecialists, advanced practice providers, nurses, pharmacists, trainees, and other members of the healthcare team to explore current evidence, emerging research, and best practices in immunotoxicity management. Through expert-led presentations, panel discussions, case-based learning, and multidisciplinary collaboration, participants will gain practical strategies for the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term care of patients experiencing immune-related adverse events.

Topics will include advances in understanding immune-related toxicities across multiple organ systems, innovative approaches to patient monitoring and survivorship, clinical trial developments, data-driven and artificial intelligence applications, and collaborative models of care that support timely recognition and intervention. The conference aims to foster a growing community of clinicians and researchers committed to improving the quality of care and outcomes for patients receiving cancer immunotherapy.

PROGRAM VENUE:  University of Washington Tower    Tower Auditorium 4333 Brooklyn Ave NE Seattle, WA 98195

Why Attend ASPIRE?

ASPIRE offers a unique opportunity to learn from nationally recognized experts in oncology, immunotherapy, and subspecialty care who are at the forefront of advancing the prevention and management of immune-related adverse events. Through expert presentations, multidisciplinary discussions, and real-world case-based learning, participants will gain practical strategies for diagnosing and managing complex immunotherapy-related toxicities across a variety of clinical settings. Attendees will also explore emerging research, innovative applications of artificial intelligence, and evolving best practices in immunotoxicity management. Beyond the educational content, ASPIRE provides a collaborative environment where healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines can share experiences, strengthen partnerships, and work together to improve outcomes for patients receiving cancer immunotherapy.

1. Develop coordinated multidisciplinary management plans for patients experiencing immune-related adverse events associated with cancer immunotherapy.
2. Apply evidence-based strategies across specialties to improve the early recognition, evaluation, and treatment of immune-related adverse events.
3. Integrate the perspectives of oncology, subspecialty, nursing, and pharmacy team members when managing complex immunotherapy-related toxicities.
4. Implement communication and referral strategies that enhance collaboration among healthcare professionals caring for patients receiving cancer immunotherapy.
5. Collaborate with interprofessional team members to identify and address barriers to timely diagnosis and management of immune-related adverse events.
