• Evaluate published and emerging clinical research findings with TROP2-directed antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for HR-positive and triple-negative metastatic breast cancer (mBC), and consider the current and future role of these agents in patient care.
• Assess the biological rationale for the evaluation of HER2-directed ADCs for patients with HER2-low and HER2-ultralow mBC, and optimally integrate FDA-approved agents into clinical algorithms.
• Discern the side effects and toxicities associated with FDA-approved ADCs in the care of patients with mBC, and identify management and mitigation strategies.
• Recall ongoing trials evaluating investigational ADCs or novel strategies involving approved ADCs for mBC, and appropriately counsel patients regarding enrollment.

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

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Discern the mechanism by which the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) pathway contributes to breast cancer proliferation and growth, and consider the clinical and research implications for the management of hormone receptor (HR)-positive metastatic breast cancer (mBC).
• Appraise published findings from randomized clinical trials and real-world experience establishing the efficacy and safety of CDK4/6 inhibitors for HR-positive mBC in order to understand the risks, benefits and optimal use of these agents in various subgroups of patients.
• Implement a clinical plan for the treatment of newly diagnosed HR-positive mBC, considering patient age, performance status, preexisting medical conditions, prior treatments and other clinical and practical factors.
• Develop preventive and emergent strategies to reduce or ameliorate the unique side effects associated with the various approved CDK4/6 inhibitors.
