Overview
Join Dr Kennerly Patrick (VCU Medical Center, US), Dr Wendy Bottinor (VCU Medical Center, US), Dr Dan Lenihan (Saint Francis Healthcare System, US), Dr Joe Carver (University of Pennsylvania, US) for an in-depth exploration of the intersection between nephro-oncology and cardio-oncology.
This webinar will address critical challenges, emerging treatments and multidisciplinary approaches for managing patients with overlapping kidney and heart conditions in oncology. Engage with leading experts, gain valuable insights and expand your knowledge in these rapidly evolving fields.
The partnership combines Radcliffe’s rapidly growing global community and expertise in delivering the most innovative virtual events, with the knowledge and experience of IC-OS’s members, to curate broadcasts that challenge current practice and have real-world patient benefits.
This webinar is for cardiologists, haematologists, oncologists, nurse practitioners, nurses and pharmacists.
The International Cardio-Oncology Society is a committed group of professionals throughout the world who are striving to protect the cardiovascular health of all patients who are undergoing cancer therapy. By optimising the cardiac status of patients with cancer before, during and after their treatment, IC-OS is collectively improving the overall outcomes including survival and quality of life. IC-OS aims to provide the latest scientific and clinical education and research for anyone treating patients with cancer in the hopes of enhancing cardiovascular protection.

Faculty Biographies
Kennerly Patrick
Dr Kennerly Patrick is a clinician educator in the Division of Nephrology at the VCU Medical Center, Richmond, US.
He earned his medical degree from the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine – Carolinas Campus in 2017, followed by an Internal Medicine residency and Nephrology fellowship at VCU Health. During his fellowship, Dr Patrick developed a strong interest in the kidney care of cancer patients, leading to the establishment of an Onconephrology clinic at VCU in 2022. In this role, he has gained extensive expertise in managing acute kidney disease in cancer patients, addressing immunotherapy-related kidney adverse events, cancer-related electrolyte disorders, chemotherapy nephrotoxicity, myeloma kidney and cancer-related glomerulonephritis.
Dr Patrick also specialises in home dialysis modalities, including home hemodialysis, nocturnal hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. He has developed a point-of-care ultrasound training programme for the VCU Nephrology Fellowship programme, enhancing the diagnosis and management of acute kidney disease in hospital settings. As a sub-investigator, Dr Patrick is involved in a multi-centre trial exploring PD catheter microbead therapy for treating hepatic encephalopathy and a clinical trial focused on immunosuppressive medications for lupus nephritis.
Outside of his professional work, Dr Patrick enjoys spending time as a singer-songwriter and traveling to the beach with his family.
Wendy Bottinor
Dr Wendy Bottinor is a Cardio-oncologist at VCU Medical Center, Richmond, US. With a deep commitment to cardiovascular health among cancer survivors, Dr Bottinor has made significant strides in the field.
She earned her medical degree and completed her residency at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, US, followed by a cardiovascular fellowship at the University of Louisville and a cardio-oncology fellowship at Vanderbilt University. At Vanderbilt, she also obtained a Master of Science in Clinical Investigation (MSCI), fueling her passion for clinical and translational research.
Dr Bottinor’s research, supported by prominent organisations like the American Heart Association, ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group and St. Baldrick’s Foundation, focuses on understanding the burden of cardiovascular disease among childhood, adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. As a Wright Center KL2 Scholar, she leads the TREAT HF clinical trial, aiming to reduce morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease using biomarkers and non-invasive imaging techniques.
Her ultimate goal is to advance evidence-based approaches for risk stratification and treatment in cardio-oncology, ensuring better outcomes for cancer survivors.
Dan Lenihan
Dr Dan Lenihan is a cardio-oncologist specialising in cardiology, heart disease and advanced heart failure, at Saint Francis Healthcare System, Cape Girardeau, US.
He is a co-Founder and Board Member of the International Cardio-Oncology Society (ICOS), which is an international professional association whose primary goal is to eliminate cardiac disease as a barrier to effective cancer therapy.
He is actively involved in patient care as the Director of the Cardio-Oncology Programme, Cardiac Rehabilitation, and the Heart Failure clinic at Saint Francis Healthcare System.
