TARGET AUDIENCE
This program is intended for hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows, medical oncologists, pharmacists, nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists and other healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of follicular lymphoma (FL).
PURPOSE STATEMENT
By providing information on the latest research developments in the context of expert perspectives, this NCPD activity will assist oncology nurses, nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists with the formulation of state-of-the-art clinical management strategies to facilitate optimal care of patients with follicular lymphoma.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Analyze how age, performance status, prior therapeutic exposure and other biological and disease-related factors affect the selection and sequencing of therapy for patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) FL.
- Develop an understanding of available clinical trial findings supporting the use of bispecific antibodies targeting CD20 and CD3 for the management of R/R FL.
- Identify patients with R/R FL who may be candidates for chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy directed at CD19.
- Assess recently presented clinical research findings with the use of CD19-targeted monoclonal antibodies in combination with immunomodulatory agents in the care of patients with R/R FL.
- Evaluate published clinical research findings establishing the efficacy and safety of combined Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor/anti-CD20 antibody therapy for patients with R/R FL.
- Consider recommended approaches to prevent, ameliorate and manage toxicities associated with various therapies commonly used in the care of patients with R/R FL.
- Evaluate the mechanisms of action, tolerability and efficacy of promising investigational agents, and consider the implications for clinical practice.
