Integrating New Advances into the Care of Patients with Cancer — A Multitumor Symposium in Partnership with the American Oncology Network — Lung Cancer

Faculty

TARGET AUDIENCE
This program is intended for medical oncologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows, surgeons, radiation oncologists, pharmacists, nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists and other healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of cancer.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Appraise the clinical relevance of recent pivotal cancer research published in peer-reviewed journals or presented at major oncology conferences.
• Recall ongoing clinical trials in select hematologic cancers and solid tumors, and as appropriate, refer patients for participation.
• Incorporate individual preferences, tumor biomarkers and other treatment-related factors in personalizing therapy for patients with cancer.
• Educate patients with hematologic cancers or solid tumors about the benefits and risks of novel therapeutic agents and strategies.
• Apply an awareness of new datasets and the perspectives of tumor-specific clinical investigators to refine or validate treatment algorithms.
• Evaluate the mechanisms of action, tolerability and efficacy of promising investigational agents, and consider the implications for clinical practice.
