TARGET AUDIENCE
This program is intended for gynecologic oncologists, medical oncologists, gynecologists and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of ovarian cancer.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Understand available clinical research findings with PARP inhibitors as maintenance therapy after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer (OC), and appropriately counsel patients regarding personalized treatment recommendations.
  • Evaluate published clinical research data with PARP inhibitors in combination with other systemic therapies in the management of OC, and consider the current and future clinical and research implications.
  • Appraise biological, patient and treatment-related factors to individualize the selection and sequencing of therapy for patients with platinum-sensitive and platinum-resistant recurrent OC.
  • Recognize the rationale for targeting folate receptor alpha (FRα) in OC, and understand the mechanism of action of and available research findings with FRα-directed antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs).
  • Appreciate available and emerging clinical research findings with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies in combination with chemotherapy for patients with platinum-resistant OC, and consider the potential role of this novel therapeutic strategy.
  • Understand the biological justification for the evaluation of selective glucocorticoid receptor modulators in combination with chemotherapy for patients with platinum-resistant OC, and recall available Phase III research findings with this novel approach.
  • Assess the incidence of cadherin-6 expression in OC, and understand the structural components of, mechanism of action of and available data with novel ADCs directed at this target.
  • Review published clinical research documenting the efficacy of HER2-targeted agents and regimens for HER2-overexpressing OC and other gynecologic cancers, and consider the role of ADCs and other approaches in the care of patients with these diseases.
  • Describe the scientific justification for, published research data with and current studies of novel agents and strategies for OC, and effectively prioritize clinical trial opportunities for eligible patients.

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

  • Assess available Phase III data with HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) therapy as a component of neoadjuvant therapy for patients with high-risk localized breast cancer, and consider the potential clinical role of this novel treatment approach.
  • Evaluate available research findings with HER2-directed ADC therapy for patients with HER2-positive localized breast cancer and residual disease after neoadjuvant treatment.
  • Appraise available research data and clinical and biological factors guiding the selection of first-line therapy for patients with newly diagnosed HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (mBC).
  • Review published research supporting the use of TROP2-directed ADCs as monotherapy or in combination with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies for patients with newly diagnosed triple-negative mBC, and use this information to make appropriate treatment recommendations.
  • Evaluate published clinical research findings with TROP2-directed ADCs for relapsed/refractory HR-positive and triple-negative mBC, and optimally incorporate these agents into patient care.
  • Assess the biological rationale for the evaluation of HER2-directed ADCs for HER2-low and HER2-ultralow mBC, and identify patients appropriate for this treatment approach.
  • Discern the side effects and toxicities associated with FDA-approved ADCs in the care of patients with breast cancer, and identify strategies to manage and mitigate those complications.
  • Recall ongoing trials evaluating the potential role of novel ADC-based strategies, and appropriately counsel patients with breast cancer regarding enrollment.
