TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, urologists, surgeons, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of urothelial bladder cancer.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Appreciate the biological rationale for combining anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies with bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) for patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), and discuss available data with and the potential role of this novel approach.
  • Optimize the management of high-risk NMIBC that is unresponsive to BCG, considering the efficacy and tolerability of FDA-endorsed therapies.
  • Review available clinical trial evidence with novel intravesical therapies for nonmetastatic bladder cancer, and optimally incorporate these approaches into the care of appropriately selected patients with NMIBC.
  • Analyze the biological basis for the use of perioperative immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), and evaluate available data documenting the efficacy and safety of this therapeutic strategy.
  • Appraise recently presented clinical research findings with perioperative anti-PD-1 antibody therapy in combination with antibody-drug conjugate therapy for patients with MIBC, and consider the current and potential role of this novel approach.
  • Develop an understanding of the clinical relevance of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a prognostic and predictive biomarker in MIBC, and evaluate available research documenting the benefit of adjuvant anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody therapy for patients with detectable ctDNA after cystectomy.
  • Assess the biological rationale for, available research findings with and potential role of promising investigational agents and strategies for patients with NMIBC and MIBC.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of prostate cancer.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Assess the clinical and biological factors that affect the consideration of systemic therapy for prostate cancer, and design appropriate treatment plans for individual patients recognizing the potential benefits and risks of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) alone or in combination with other commonly employed agents.
  • Compare and contrast the mechanistic similarities and differences between LHRH agonists and GnRH antagonists, and use this information to individualize treatment for patients with prostate cancer.
  • Evaluate the published research database supporting the FDA approval of oral GnRH antagonist therapy to optimally incorporate this novel form of ADT into current treatment algorithms for advanced prostate cancer.
  • Understand the significance of testosterone recovery following ADT for maintaining patient quality of life, and appropriately monitor testosterone when employing these agents for prostate cancer.
  • Identify the potential side effects, including cardiovascular-related events, associated with LHRH agonists and GnRH antagonists for patients with prostate cancer, and develop strategies to prevent, mitigate and manage these toxicities.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of lung cancer.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Evaluate clinical, biological and patient-related factors, such as age, site and bulk of disease, performance status, comorbid conditions and prior therapy, and use this information to personalize treatment recommendations for patients with newly diagnosed extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC).
  • Review long-term data supporting the use of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line therapy for patients with ES-SCLC, and consider how these regimens can be appropriately and safely integrated into clinical practice.
  • Appreciate the biological rationale for the evaluation of maintenance treatment after chemoimmunotherapy induction, and recognize available research establishing the benefit of this approach.
  • Recognize adverse events associated with available and emerging first-line and maintenance therapies for ES-SCLC, and develop strategies to manage and mitigate complications.
  • Recall the design of ongoing clinical trials evaluating novel first-line and maintenance strategies for ES-SCLC, and appropriately counsel patients about availability and participation.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows, radiation oncologists, surgeons and other allied healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of gynecologic cancers.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Appreciate the prevalence and clinical relevance of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) amplification and overexpression in various gynecologic cancers, and consider the implications for biomarker assessment and clinical management.
  • Evaluate published research findings with established HER2-targeted therapies for patients with HER2-positive gynecologic cancers, and assess the current role of various agents and regimens.
  • Recall available data with HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugates in the treatment of HER2-positive ovarian, endometrial and cervical cancers, and optimally integrate these agents into the care of appropriately selected patients.
  • Appraise the side effects associated with various HER2-directed therapies commonly employed for gynecologic cancers, and use this information to develop supportive management plans for patients.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of desmoid tumors.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Assess available clinical evidence documenting the efficacy and safety of various local and systemic management approaches for desmoid tumors, and determine the current indications for these strategies.
  • Appreciate Phase III efficacy and safety findings with novel gamma secretase inhibitors for patients with progressing desmoid tumors in order to optimally incorporate available agents into management algorithms.
  • Recognize the spectrum, frequency and severity of adverse events associated with novel gamma secretase inhibitors, and recall the supportive care strategies available to minimize and manage these toxicities.
