TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical and radiation oncologists, urologists and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of genitourinary cancers.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Evaluate recently presented clinical research findings to determine their effect on the current management of localized or metastatic prostate cancer.
- Explore available data with treatment intensification for hormone-sensitive localized or metastatic prostate cancer, and effectively integrate FDA-approved strategies into current clinical management algorithms.
- Assess the available research database supporting PARP inhibitors in combination with androgen receptor pathway inhibitors for patients with metastatic prostate cancer harboring a homologous recombination repair gene alteration, and discern how to optimally incorporate these agents into current clinical management algorithms.
- Appreciate the biological rationale for targeting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway for prostate cancer, and evaluate available data with novel AKT inhibitors in combination with hormonal therapy for patients with PTEN deficiency.
- Review available Phase III data documenting the efficacy of various forms of radioligand therapy for metastatic prostate cancer, and consider the current and potential future clinical role of these strategies.
- Optimize the management of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), considering the efficacy and tolerability of FDA-endorsed and other emerging novel therapeutic strategies.
- Appraise clinical research findings with perioperative anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody therapy alone and in combination with antibody-drug conjugate therapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).
- Develop an understanding of the clinical relevance of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a prognostic and predictive biomarker for MIBC, and evaluate available research data documenting the benefit of adjuvant anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody therapy for patients who are ctDNA positive following cystectomy.
- Appreciate how various clinical and biological factors, including prior therapeutic exposure, affect the selection and sequencing of therapy for patients with metastatic urothelial bladder cancer (UBC).
- Develop a rational approach to the sequencing of systemic therapies for patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC), incorporating immunotherapeutic agents, multikinase inhibitors, HIF-2α inhibitors or combinations of these approaches.
- Appreciate published clinical research findings evaluating available and investigational agents for non-clear cell RCC, and consider the applicability of these strategies in current clinical care.
- Recall available and emerging data with other novel and investigational agents and strategies currently in testing for prostate cancer, UBC and RCC, and refer eligible patients for clinical trial participation.
