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

  • Evaluate recently presented clinical research findings to determine their effect on the current management of localized or metastatic breast cancer (mBC).
  • Appraise published efficacy and safety data from randomized clinical trials evaluating the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors for hormone receptor (HR)-positive localized or metastatic breast cancer in order to counsel patients appropriately regarding the optimal clinical use of these agents.
  • Recognize the frequency of PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alterations and ESR1 mutations in patients with HR-positive mBC, and employ evidence-based approaches designed to target these aberrations.
  • Understand the mechanism of action of, published research findings with and current and future clinical role of oral selective estrogen receptor degraders for patients with HR-positive mBC harboring ESR1 mutations.
  • Evaluate published research findings to effectively inform the selection and sequencing of available therapeutic agents and regimens for patients with HER2-positive localized and metastatic breast cancer.
  • Appreciate the incidence, characteristics and clinical relevance of HER2-low or HER2-ultralow mBC, and understand available research findings with HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugates for these patients.
  • Interrogate published Phase III research documenting the efficacy of TROP2-directed antibody-drug conjugates for patients with mBC to determine the current and potential clinical applicability of these approaches.
  • Assess the mechanisms of action of, early data with and ongoing clinical trials evaluating other novel agents and treatment strategies under development for localized and metastatic breast cancer.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of 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

  • Effectively apply the results of practice-changing clinical research to the care of patients with breast cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, follicular lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
  • Appraise the clinical relevance of recent pivotal cancer research published in peer-reviewed journals or presented at major oncology conferences.
  • Recall ongoing clinical trials for select hematologic cancers and solid tumors, and as appropriate, refer patients for participation.
  • Incorporate clinical characteristics, logistical factors, tumor biomarkers and single and multigene signatures into individualized therapy for patients with cancer.
  • Educate patients with select hematologic cancers and solid tumors about the benefits and risks of novel therapeutic agents and strategies.
  • Refine or validate existing cancer treatment algorithms, considering new datasets and the perspectives of tumor-specific clinical investigators.
  • Evaluate the tolerability, efficacy and mechanisms of action of promising investigational agents, and consider the implications for clinical practice.

  • Appraise the clinical relevance of recent pivotal cancer research published in peer-reviewed journals or presented at major oncology conferences.
  • Recall ongoing clinical trials for select hematologic cancers and solid tumors, and as appropriate, refer patients for participation.
  • Incorporate clinical characteristics, logistical factors, tumor biomarkers and single and multigene signatures into individualized therapy for patients with cancer.
  • Educate patients with select hematologic cancers and solid tumors about the benefits and risks of novel therapeutic agents and strategies.
  • Refine or validate existing cancer treatment algorithms, considering new datasets and the perspectives of tumor-specific clinical investigators.
  • Evaluate the tolerability, efficacy and mechanisms of action of promising investigational agents, and consider the implications for clinical practice.
