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

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Appreciate the incidence and clinical implications of ESR1 mutations in endocrine-resistant metastatic breast cancer (mBC), and determine optimal strategies to effectively identify patients harboring these abnormalities.
• Understand the biological rationale for, mechanism of action of and pharmacologic similarities and differences among available and investigational oral selective estrogen receptor degraders (SERDs).
• Interrogate published research documenting the efficacy of oral SERD monotherapy for hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative, ESR1-mutated mBC progressing on standard endocrine therapy in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor in order to optimally integrate these agents into the care of appropriately selected patients.
• Review available research data evaluating serial ESR1 testing using circulating tumor DNA to inform early therapeutic switching for patients with HR-positive mBC receiving CDK4/6 inhibitor-based first-line therapy, and consider the potential role of this novel strategy.
• Evaluate available clinical trial data with oral SERDs in combination with other systemic therapies (eg, CDK4/6 inhibitors, mTOR inhibitors), and consider the potential role of these regimens.
• Recognize the frequency of PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alterations in patients with HR-positive mBC, and employ evidence-based approaches to target these aberrations for appropriate candidates with newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory disease.
• Understand the biological rationale for the development of agents targeting multiple components of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, and recognize available and emerging data employing this strategy for patients with HR-positive, PIK3CA wild-type and PIK3CA-mutant mBC.
• Appreciate side effects associated with available and investigational oral SERDs and agents targeting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, and use this information to develop supportive care plans for patients receiving these treatments.
• Assess ongoing clinical research studies evaluating novel applications of oral SERDs and PI3K/AKT/mTOR inhibitor-based approaches, and counsel patients regarding the potential benefits of trial participation.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of oncology nurses, nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists involved in the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

PURPOSE STATEMENT
By providing information on the latest research developments in the context of expert perspectives, this NCPD activity will assist oncology nurses, nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists with the formulation of state-of-the-art clinical management strategies to facilitate optimal care of patients with pancreatic cancer.

DESIRED LEARNING OUTCOME
At the conclusion of this activity, the learner will be able to self-report understanding of the logistical and practical requirements associated with novel therapies for pancreatic cancer in order to educate, counsel and assist patients and their families in decision-making.

At the end of the activity, learners will also be able to

• Appreciate the biological, clinical and logistical factors that affect the selection of first-line therapy for locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAD), and incorporate this information into patient education discussions.
• Assess published efficacy findings with regimens incorporating novel chemotherapeutic formulations as first-line therapy for patients with metastatic PAD, and understand the current role of these approaches.
• Examine available datasets exploring the effect of dose adjustments on the efficacy of chemotherapeutic regimens employed in the management of newly diagnosed metastatic PAD, and consider the potential feasibility of tolerability-guided dosing strategies.
• Recognize FDA-approved treatment approaches for metastatic PAD that has progressed on front-line chemotherapy, and counsel patients regarding the risks and benefits of these strategies.
• Evaluate the mechanism of action of, published research findings with and current clinical role of tumor treating fields for unresectable, locally advanced PAD.
• Recall relevant oncogenic pathways mediating the pathogenesis of PAD, and discern the implications for biomarker analysis and treatment decision-making.
• Appreciate the spectrum and frequency of RAS mutations found in patients with metastatic PAD, and develop an understanding of available and emerging data with and ongoing research studies of novel agents designed to exploit this therapeutic pathway.
• Design and implement a plan of care to recognize and manage side effects and toxicities associated with approved systemic regimens commonly employed in the management of PAD, to support quality of life and continuation of therapy.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of oncology nurses, nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists involved in the treatment of prostate cancer.

PURPOSE STATEMENT
By providing information on the latest research developments in the context of expert perspectives, this NCPD activity will assist oncology nurses, nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists with the formulation of state-of-the-art clinical management strategies to facilitate optimal care of patients with prostate cancer.

DESIRED LEARNING OUTCOME
At the conclusion of this activity, the learner will be able to self-report understanding of the logistical and practical requirements associated with novel therapies for prostate cancer in order to educate, counsel and assist patients and their families in decision-making.

At the end of the activity, learners will also be able to

• Appraise published research findings on optimal management approaches for patients with biochemical recurrence after local treatment for prostate cancer, and counsel appropriate individuals regarding the potential benefits of FDA-approved systemic treatment options.
• Evaluate the published research supporting the FDA approvals of secondary hormonal agents for nonmetastatic prostate cancer, and apply this information to educate patients about personalized treatment recommendations.
• Explore available data with treatment intensification with cytotoxic therapy, secondary hormonal therapy or combinations of these approaches for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), and identify patients for these strategies.
• Assess the available and emerging research supporting PARP inhibitors in combination with androgen receptor pathway inhibitors for patients with metastatic prostate cancer harboring a homologous recombination repair gene alteration, and discern how to optimally incorporate these agents into current clinical management algorithms.
• Appreciate the biological rationale for targeting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway for prostate cancer, and evaluate available data with novel AKT inhibitors in combination with hormonal therapy for patients with mHSPC and PTEN deficiency.
• Review available Phase III data documenting the efficacy of various forms of radioligand therapy for metastatic prostate cancer, and consider the current and future clinical role of these strategies.
• Recall the design of ongoing clinical trials evaluating other novel agents and strategies for prostate cancer, and counsel appropriate patients about availability and participation.
