TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for medical and radiation oncologists, urologists and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of prostate cancer.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Infer how various clinical and biological factors affect the risk of prostate cancer recurrence after local therapy, and design appropriate treatment plans for individual patients with consideration of the potential benefits and risks of new and established forms of hormonal therapy.
  • Discuss the biological rationale for and available data with perioperative androgen deprivation therapy in combination with an androgen receptor pathway inhibitor for patients with high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer, and review the potential clinical role of this novel strategy.
  • Appraise published research findings on optimal management approaches for biochemical recurrence after local treatment for prostate cancer, and appropriately counsel patients regarding the potential benefits of FDA-approved systemic treatment options.
  • Evaluate the published research database supporting the FDA approvals of secondary hormonal agents in the management of nonmetastatic prostate cancer, and apply this information in the discussion of nonresearch treatment options with patients.
  • Explore available data with treatment intensification with cytotoxic therapy, secondary hormonal therapy or combinations of these approaches for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, and effectively integrate these strategies into clinical management algorithms.
  • Understand the potential side effects, including cardiovascular events, of hormonal agents commonly employed in the management of prostate cancer, and develop strategies to prevent, mitigate and manage these toxicities.
  • Recall the design of ongoing clinical trials evaluating other novel hormonal agents and strategies for prostate cancer, 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 chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Recognize the prognostic and clinical significance of various biomarkers (eg, del[17p], TP53 mutations, IGHV gene rearrangements) in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and refine molecular testing algorithms for patients newly diagnosed with this disease.
  • Individualize the selection of systemic therapy for patients with treatment-naïve CLL, considering new research findings, biomarker profile, clinical presentation, coexisting medical conditions and other factors.
  • Appraise available Phase III data documenting the comparative efficacy and tolerability of first- and second-generation Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors, and consider the implications of these findings for clinical decision-making for patients with newly diagnosed CLL, including those with high-risk features.
  • Appreciate the scientific rationale for the investigation of combined Bruton tyrosine kinase and Bcl-2 inhibition, and review recently presented data documenting the safety and efficacy of this strategy for previously untreated CLL.
  • Implement a plan of care to recognize and manage side effects and toxicities associated with available systemic therapies commonly employed in the management of newly diagnosed CLL.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity 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 published research findings, clinical factors (eg, PD-L1, HER2 and BRCA status) and individual preferences in the selection and sequencing of available therapeutic agents and strategies for patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC).
  • Review published research data supporting the use of TROP2-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) therapy in combination with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies for patients with newly diagnosed mTNBC, and use this information to make appropriate treatment recommendations.
  • Assess recently presented clinical research findings with TROP2-directed ADC monotherapy as first-line treatment for mTNBC, and optimally incorporate these agents into the care of patients with this disease.
  • Understand the biological rationale for the evaluation of HER2-directed ADCs for patients with HER2-low mTNBC, and identify patients for whom treatment with this approach would be appropriate.
  • Recognize the spectrum, frequency and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events associated with agents and approaches commonly used for mTNBC, and develop strategies to monitor for, prevent and manage these complications.
  • Assess the mechanisms of action of, early data with and ongoing clinical trials evaluating other novel agents and treatment strategies under development for mTNBC.

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

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Analyze how age, performance status, prior therapeutic exposure and other biological and disease-related factors affect the selection of therapy for patients who experience relapse after first-line treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
  • Appraise the similarities and differences between covalent and noncovalent Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors, and recognize the implications for clinical activity and tolerability.
  • Discuss available and emerging clinical research demonstrating the efficacy and safety of noncovalent BTK inhibitors, alone and in combination with other therapies, for relapsed/refractory CLL, and use this information to effectively incorporate these agents into the treatment of disease that has previously been treated with a covalent BTK inhibitor.
  • Appreciate recent clinical research with noncovalent BTK inhibitors for patients with treatment-naïve or BTK inhibitor-naïve CLL, and discern the implications of these findings for therapeutic selection and sequencing.
  • Evaluate the biological rationale for the investigation of CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy for CLL, and identify patients for whom this novel therapeutic strategy would be appropriate.
  • Appraise clinical investigator best practices for various relapsed/refractory CLL management situations, and leverage this information to improve shared decision-making with patients.
  • Recall available and emerging data with novel agents and combination strategies currently under investigation in CLL, and appropriately refer patients for clinical trial participation.

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

  • Appreciate the pathophysiology, incidence and signs and symptoms of Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) in patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
  • Recall strategies to establish a positive diagnosis of LEMS, and use this information to facilitate the accurate and timely evaluation of patients with SCLC in whom this condition is suspected.
  • Develop an understanding of the clinical research database supporting the use of potassium channel blockers in the management of LEMS, including that associated with SCLC, and optimally integrate this treatment into the care of patients with this condition.
  • Appraise the role of multidisciplinary specialists such as neurologists in the diagnosis and management of LEMS, and effectively collaborate with these clinicians to offer best-practice care for patients with SCLC in whom this condition is suspected or diagnosed.
