• Symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM) is a chronic, progressive condition affecting 1:200 to 1:500 individuals in the US^1,2
• Despite available standard-of-care therapies, patients may experience impaired functional capacity and disease progression, driving the need for therapies that target the underlying oHCM pathophysiology rather than symptoms alone^2-4
• This webinar will be led by Rachel Lavelle, PharmD, who brings complementary clinical and managed care perspectives on oHCM, combining deep experience in cardiology care, guideline-directed therapy implementation, and value-focused cardiovascular outcomes

Unpacking the Data: The Application and Interpretation of Real-World Evidence in GLP-1 Obesity Treatment

GLP-1 agonists to treat obesity continue to challenge health plan sponsors as a major contributor to prescription drug spending, leading to widespread variation in coverage among health plans and employer groups. GLP-1 treatments for obesity hold the potential for improved health outcomes which could offset increasing prescription drug spending through reductions in medical costs. However, real-world evidence on this connection remains limited, with seemingly contradictory findings across analyses. Variation in study design and assessment contributes to these differences, creating challenges for managed care professionals seeking to leverage this evidence when making coverage decisions. This presentation will address the existing knowledge gap by reviewing the real-world evidence on GLP-1 products for obesity, exploring how variation in the design of these studies affects results, and describing how managed care decision-makers can leverage current evidence to inform GLP-1 coverage decisions. 

2-3 pm ET

Research Podium Session - Leveraging Real-World Data to Advance Managed Care Pharmacy Practice

Each year, hundreds of authors submit research abstracts to AMCP’s Annual Meeting. Accepted abstracts are presented as posters in the Expo Hall and published in a special issue of the Journal of Managed Care + Specialty Pharmacy. Top abstracts are awarded platinum ribbons and presented at the Research Podium Session.  

AMCP’s 2026 platinum abstracts had a common theme – use of real-world data to advance managed care pharmacy practice. In this Research Podium Session, authors will describe novel ways to leverage and link datasets to provide a deeper understanding of patients and outcomes.  

4-5 pm ET

Health Plan Best Practices in Psoriasis: Overcoming Access Barriers to Advanced Treatments

Sponsored and presented by Impact Education, LLC, separate registration required. Click here to register.

This activity is supported by an educational grant from Johnson & Johnson.

The psoriasis treatment landscape is rapidly evolving. Although treatment guidelines are routinely updated, ongoing innovation and the introduction of new therapies frequently render even the most current guidelines incomplete. During this symposium, expert faculty members will discuss solutions that managed care professionals can implement in their own settings to help aid in improving outcomes for patients with psoriasis. Faculty members will demonstrate the unique perspectives they bring to overall care recommendations for patients with psoriasis within a managed care setting.

A Pre-Approval Information Exchange (PIE) Webinar, presented by Jazz Pharmaceuticals.

Gastric and gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas are often diagnosed at advanced stages with poor survival. HER2 overexpression occurs in ~20% of cases. This pre‑approval exchange reviews disease burden, current first‑line treatment, and emerging late‑stage data for zanidatamab in HER2‑positive gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma for payer evaluation. Zanidatamab‑hrii is under investigation for first‑line treatment of locally advanced/metastatic HER2+ GEA; safety and efficacy are not established.

An AMCP PA/UM LINK Group Webinar.

How are we doing as an industry as we strive to balance evidence, access, and consistency across coverage policies?   This webinar takes a deep dive into how UM practices vary across payers and how they’ve evolved from 2017–2025. Dr. James D. Chambers, PhD, MPharm, Professor at Tufts Medicine and Center for the Evaluation of Value and Risk in Health, will examine the evidence health plans cite in drug coverage policies and assess how payer criteria align with pivotal clinical trials—using cell and gene therapies as a real‑world case study.

If you haven’t had an opportunity to hear Dr Chambers- you won’t want to miss this!  And if you have, we know you have already registered!  

A Pre-Approval Information Exchange (PIE) Webinar, presented by Takeda Pharmaceuticals.

Narcolepsy Type 1 (NT1) is a rare, chronic neurologic disorder caused by loss of orexin (hypocretin) neurons and marked by excessive daytime sleepiness and cataplexy. Beyond the classic pentad, additional manifestations can affect many aspects of daily functioning. Existing treatments focus on symptom relief alone, as many treated patients report residual symptoms and ongoing impairment. These limitations underscore the need to investigate therapies that directly target orexin deficiency in NT1.

An AMCP Precision Medicine LINK Webinar.

The next Precision Medicine LINK webinar brings standards, advocacy, and real‑world insights together to help you create clearer, more consistent pathways to precision medicine access!

The session opens with Melissa Y. Tjota, MD, PhD, with the University of Chicago Medicine, who will walk through recommended terms and definitions from the 2025 NCCN Biomarkers Resource Committee, helping ground coverage and utilization decisions in a shared, consistent language. Hilary Gee Goeckner, MSW of the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network will then highlight ongoing advocacy efforts shaping access to care across the country. Finally, Pam Pawloski, PharmD, Principal Research Scientist with ARI,  will share insights from a LUNGevity‑ and ACS CAN‑funded real‑world study exploring payer‑identified gaps and opportunities in coverage for broad molecular testing.

Let’s dig into it together—join the Precision Medicine LINK conversation.
