TARGET AUDIENCE
This program is intended for medical oncologists, breast surgeons, radiation oncologists and other healthcare professionals involved in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Appreciate the incidence and clinical implications of ESR1 mutations in endocrine-resistant metastatic breast cancer (mBC), and determine optimal strategies to effectively identify patients harboring these abnormalities.
  • Understand the biological rationale for, mechanism of action of and pharmacologic similarities and differences among available and investigational oral selective estrogen receptor degraders (SERDs).
  • Interrogate published research findings documenting the efficacy of available and investigational oral SERDs for patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative, ESR1-mutant mBC experiencing disease progression on standard endocrine therapy in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor in order to optimally integrate these agents into the care of appropriately selected individuals.
  • Evaluate available clinical trial data with oral SERDs in combination with other therapeutic agents for patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative mBC with and without ESR1 mutations, and consider the potential role of these regimens.
  • Appreciate side effects associated with available and investigational oral SERDs, and use this information to develop supportive management plans for patients undergoing treatment with this form of therapy.
  • Assess ongoing clinical research studies evaluating novel applications of oral SERDs for ER-positive breast cancer, and counsel patients regarding the potential benefits of trial participation.
